One of the hardest things for me as an exec was always, particularly as you progress further in the system, is that you're pushed further away from the day to day, the mechanics of making a movie.

[Recent evidence regarding quantum mechanics is] sufficient to rule out all theological options but one - the Bible's.

Quantum mechanics has explained all of chemistry and most of physics.

Quantum mechanics is confusing and consciousness is confusing, so maybe they're the same.

Quantum mechanics makes absolutely no sense.

...quantum mechanics—the physics of our world—requires that you hold such pedestrian complaints in abeyance.

People wanted to vote for us but the mechanics of getting the voters to the polling stations we didnt have. We did not have the money most of all .

Physics is really figuring out how to discover new things that are counterintuitive, like quantum mechanics. It's really counterintuitive.

Quantum mechanics is weird. I don't understand it. Just live with it. You don't have to understand the nature of things in order to build cool devices.

Quantum mechanics is so counter-intuitive, physicists have never been able to come up with a comfortable picture of how it works.

Quantum mechanics, with its leap into statistics, has been a mere palliative for our ignorance

Reality is a cruel and unintuitive place with frustrating gameplay mechanics. (Press X to thanklessly toil your life away)

Schrödinger's wave-mechanics is not a physical theory, but a dodge - and a very good dodge too.

[T]he laws of quantum mechanics itself cannot be formulated ... without recourse to the concept of consciousness.

The discontinuous 'reduction of the wave packets' which cannot be derived from Schroedinger's equation is ... a consequence of the transition from the possible to the actual.

The importance of infinite processes for the practical exigencies of technical life can hardly be overemphasized. Practically all applications of arithmetic to geometry, mechanics, physics and even statistics involve these processes directly and indirectly.

Solipsism may be logically consistent with present Quantum Mechanics, Monism in the sense of Materialism is not.

String theory is the most developed theory with the capacity to unite general relativity and quantum mechanics in a consistent manner. I do believe the universe is consistent, and therefore I do believe that general relativity and quantum mechanics should be put together in a manner that makes sense.

The Creator is not a careless mechanic.

[The Many-worlds interpretation is the] only completely coherent approach to explaining both the contents of quantum mechanics and the appearance of the world.

To know the mechanics of the wave, is to know the entire secret of Nature.

The only object of theoretical physics is to calculate results that can be compared with experiment... it is quite unnecessary that any satisfactory description of the whole course of the phenomena should be given.

The problem is that replacement of Quantum Mechanics by Quantum Field Theory is still very demanding.

The noncook is in a helpless position, much like that of the car owner who can’t change a tire and has to depend on mechanics to keep his automobile running.

The science behind Interstellar is interesting, because some of it is absolutely real astrophysics and orbital mechanics, some of it is theoretical physics, and some of it is completely Hollywood. When a science fiction movie is based on plausible science, it's really good.

Very rarely do I work on mechanics now. I tend to solve problems within the music itself.

When I looked into the mechanics of being a businessman, I found it wasn't rocket science.

What should be targeted is a concept of organic, and not just mechanic, democracy that preserves the rule of law, separation of powers, and that is participatory and pluralistic.

His eyes softened into something almost like amusement, as if such a ragged appearance was all one could expect from a renowned mechanic.

When things get tough, there are two things that make life worth living: Mozart, and quantum mechanics

Willard Gibbs did for statistical mechanics and for thermodynamics what Laplace did for celestial mechanics and Maxwell did for electrodynamics, namely, made his field a well-nigh finished theoretical structure.

I am not human. I am a cyborg. I am mechanic. That's all I am... right?

Take care of your car in the garage, and the car will take care of you on the road.

Anyone not shocked by quantum mechanics has not yet understood it.

A designer is an emerging synthesis of artist, inventor, mechanic, objective economist and evolutionary strategist.

You missed it when you pay more attention to the damaged car in the mechanic shop than the sick human being in the hospital.

After you start learning all about the mechanics of piloting a riverboat, you stop seeing all the pretty sunsets and you start thinking about the weather.

Anyone who can contemplate quantum mechanics without getting dizzy hasn't understood it.

A speaker is like a lousy auto mechanic: Every time he fixes something in the language, he screws up something else.

A poet is a time mechanic not an embalmer.

As you get older, things conk out. It's a bit like a car. As long as it's something the mechanics can fix, you can chug on for a few more thousand miles.

Common sense has no place in Quantum Mechanics.

At 16, I dropped out of school and spent five years working as a bicycle mechanic and volunteering in a Trauma Centre before ultimately deciding to go to university.

But some of these theories are so bold that they can clash with reality: they are the testable theories of science. And when they clash, then we know that there is a reality; something that can inform us that our ideas are mistaken.

Celestial mechanics is the origin of dynamical systems, linear algebra, topology, variational calculus and symplectic geometry.

History is nothing but a problem of mechanics applied to psychology.

Game mechanics are the core of what a game truly is. They are the interactions and relationships that remain when all of the aesthetics, technology, and story are stripped away.

Digital mechanics predicts that for every continuous symmetry of physics there will be some microscopic process that violates that symmetry.

Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible as well.

Good doctors get a mechanic's pleasure in making you tick over.
