Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

Famous quotes containing the words uncertainty and/or principle:

    “It was your severed image that grew sweeter,
    That floated, wing-stiff, focused in the sun
    Along uncertainty and gales of shame
    Blown out before I slept. Now you are one
    I dare not think alive: only a name
    That chimes occasionally, as a belief
    Long since embedded in the static past.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The principle of subordination is the great bond of union and harmony through the universe.”
    —Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
