Niels Bohr — "The goal of science is to explain the world, not to describe it."

"If we would understand the atom, we must be able to describe it in its totality, and not merely in its parts."

"The role of consciousness in quantum mechanics is still a mystery."

"An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field."

"The quantum postulate implies that any observation of atomic phenomena will involve an interaction with the agency of observation which is not negligible."

"The history of science is full of examples of how new ideas have been met with resistance, only to be accepted later."
