I want to study theoretical physics because it is one of the hardest things there is. Sergio Marchionne

Physics Study Because Want Theoretical Hardest Things

Thanks to the fact that the Earth isn't a perfect sphere, and invoking a bunch of Newtonian physics, you can deduce that our planet wobbles, too, taking roughly 26,000 years to trace out a small circle on the sky, a phenomenon known as precession. Seth Shostak

You Physics Sky Circle Thanks Too Our Earth Sphere Our Planet Out Small Fact Perfect Taking Invoking Trace Known Years Bunch Planet Deduce Roughly Phenomenon

If gravity were somewhat stronger or weaker, stars wouldn't exist, and neither would you. And the same can be said of other constants of physics. Several have to be 'just right.' Seth Shostak

You Physics Stronger Stars Other Several Weaker Neither Would Somewhat Said Were Exist Same Just Right Gravity

I think that I got committed to physics at the age of - oh, it must have been 1942 - ten, when most countries were at war and children were interested in airplanes and bombs and such things. Sheldon Lee Glashow

War Age Physics Think Airplane Must Ten Countries Most Got Were Been Committed Oh Children Interested Such Things Bombs Things

There are physicists, and there are string theorists. Of course the string theorists are physicists, but the string theorists in general will not attend lectures on experimental physics. They will not be terribly concerned about the results of experiments. They will talk to one another. Sheldon Lee Glashow

Physics Will String About General Physicists Results Attend Talk Concerned Terribly Another Course Lectures Experimental Experiments

In 1956, when I began doing theoretical physics, the study of elementary particles was like a patchwork quilt. Electrodynamics, weak interactions, and strong interactions were clearly separate disciplines, separately taught and separately studied. There was no coherent theory that described them all. Sheldon Lee Glashow

Would physics at Geneva be as good as physics at Harvard? I think not. Rome? I think not. In Britain, I don't think there is one place, neither Cambridge nor Oxford, which can compare with Harvard. Sheldon Lee Glashow

Good Physics Think Harvard Neither Would Geneva Cambridge Nor Oxford Rome Place Which Compare Britain

If we believe in an all-powerful God, then we must then believe that God gave us this Earth, and we must in turn believe that God gave us its laws of gravity, of chemistry, of physics. We must also believe that God gave us our human powers of intellect and reason. Sheldon Whitehouse

When I got started in my own engineering course, my interest in physics and maths was very high. After all, engineering is all about applied maths and physics. If I were to learn anything further in physics or mathematics, it simply was not there. Shiv Nadar

I spent eighteen months as a graduate student in physics at Columbia University, waiting unhappily for an opportunity to work in a laboratory and wondering if I should continue in physics. Sidney Altman

Eight months later, having left Columbia, I was studying physics in a summer program and working in Colorado when I decided to enroll as a graduate student in biophysics. Sidney Altman

I've always liked all the sciences, like math, physics and biology. Sigrid Agren

The new formula in physics describes humans as paradoxical beings who have two complementary aspects: They can show properties of Newtonian objects and also infinite fields of consciousness. Stanislav Grof

Physics Complementary Paradoxical Objects Properties New Also Infinite Fields Formula Aspects Show Who Beings Consciousness Humans Two

Most people don't have time to master the very mathematical details of theoretical physics. Stephen Hawking

Time People Physics Master Details Most Mathematical Very Theoretical

Philosophers have not kept up with modern developments in science. Particularly physics. Stephen Hawking

Dark energy is perhaps the biggest mystery in physics. Steve Allen

Physics Dark Energy Mystery Perhaps Biggest

Statistical physics or Newtonian physics gives way to quantum physics. Very unusual properties of matter emerge at that scale, and you can think about building products in a very different way. You can think about interfacing to biology in a very different way. Steve Jurvetson

I'm a person who's very interested in science and the universe and quantum physics and astrophysics. Steve Kazee

I was born in 1933 in New York City to Frederick and Eva Weinberg. My early inclination toward science received encouragement from my father, and by the time I was 15 or 16, my interests had focused on theoretical physics. Steven Weinberg

I have passed English medical examinations in Hong Kong... In my youth, I experienced overseas studies. The languages of the West, its literature, its political science, its customs, its mathematics, its geography, its physics and chemistry - all these I have had the chance to study. Sun Yat-sen

It was at Juilliard that I realized that being a singer encompasses so many things that I am interested in. Literature, languages, physics, history, art. You really get to explore so many things. Susanna Phillips
