PHYSICS
[ Also see Atomic Bombs Gravity Science ]

It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how nature is. Physics concerns what we can say about nature.
      - Niels Henrik David Bohr

I am acutely aware of the fact that the marriage between mathematics and physics, which was so enormously fruitful in past centuries, has recently ended in divorce.
      - Freeman John Dyson, Missed Opportrunities

God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically.
      - Albert Einstein, in "Quest" by L. Infeld

God does not play dice [with the universe].
  [Ger., Gott wurfelt nicht.]
      - Albert Einstein, in a letter to Max Born

I don't believe in mathematics.
      - Albert Einstein,
        quoted by Carl Seelig, in "Albert Einstein"

I think that a particle must have a separate reality independent of the measurements. That is an electron has spin, location and so forth even when it is not being measured. I like to think that the moon is there even if I am not looking at it.
      - Albert Einstein

It should be possible to explain the laws of physics to a barmaid.
      - Albert Einstein

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
      - Albert Einstein

Relativity applies to physics, not ethics.
      - Albert Einstein

Space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind union of the two will preserve an independent reality.
      - Albert Einstein

When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute-and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity.
      - Albert Einstein

When forced to summarize the general theory of relativity in one sentence: Time and space and graviton have no separate existence from matter.
      - Albert Einstein

When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity.
      - Albert Einstein, on relativity

When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, you think it's only a minute. But when you sit on a hot stove for a minute, you think it's two hours. That's relativity.
      - Albert Einstein
