"Modern physics has, in a certain sense, revived Plato's philosophy of forms in the atomic world."
"The problems of atomic physics are not problems of technology, but problems of philosophy."
"There is a fundamental error in separating the parts from the whole, the mistake of atomizing what should not be atomized. Unity and complementarity constitute reality."
"The smallest units of matter are not physical objects in the ordinary sense; they are forms, structures or—in Plato's sense—Ideas."
