Biology is now bigger than physics as measured by the size of budgets by the size of the workforce or by the output of major discoveries and biology is likely to remain the biggest part of science through the twenty-first century.

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

In science 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.

The point here is that physics followed the data where it seemed to lead even though some thought the model gave aid and comfort to religion.

Go beyond science into the region of metaphysics. Real religion is beyond argument. It can only be lived both inwardly and outwardly.

He however who begins with Metaphysics will not only become confused in matters of religion but will fall into complete infidelity.

The Web is now philosophical engineering. Physics and the Web are both about the relationship between the small and the large.

This book is about physics and its about physics and its relationship with mathematics and how they seem to be intimately related and to what extent can you explore this relationship and trust it.

Liberty according to my metaphysics is a self-determining power in an intellectual agent. It implies thought and choice and power.

The fundamental concept in social science is Power in the same sense in which Energy is the fundamental concept in physics.

I do not see how a man can work on the frontiers of physics and write poetry at the same time. They are in opposition.

The nerds are my favourite sort of boys - any guy with a passion - whether it be physics or film or writing or poetry even I think it's super sweet and it's very attractive for a female.

It's always a combination of physics and poetry that I find inspiring. It's hard to wrap your head around things like the Hubble scope.

Soon I knew the craft of experimental physics was beyond me - it was the sublime quality of patience - patience in accumulating data patience with recalcitrant equipment - which I sadly lacked.

I'd love to go back to Europe in the '20s and '30s for the beginning of the Psychoanalytic Movement and Freud and Jung and all that was going on with discoveries in quantum physics. The whole nature of reality was changing and being challenged.

The possibilities that are suggested in quantum physics tell us that everything that we're looking at may not be in fact there so the underlying nature of being is weird.

It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how Nature is. Physics concerns what we say about Nature.

A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books.

It is generally recognised that women are better than men at languages personal relations and multi-tasking but less good at map-reading and spatial awareness. It is therefore not unreasonable to suppose that women might be less good at mathematics and physics.

The grounding in natural sciences which I obtained in the course of my medical studies including preliminary examinations in botany zoology physics and chemistry was to become decisive in determining the trend of my literary work.

I have devoted much time and energy to helping medical physics in developing countries.

I was the Chair of the first department of medical physics in a medical school in the U.S.

Most medical physicists work in the physics of radiation oncology making sure that the desired dose is given to the cancer and the dose to normal tissues are minimized.

Medical physics is an applied area of physics.
