Physicist's famous sayings:

1. Nature and the laws of nature are hidden in the dark night; God said, let Newton go! Then everything is illuminated. ?Pope

2. Since Newton laid the foundation of theoretical physics, the greatest change in the axiomatic basis of physics was caused by the work of Faraday and Maxwell on electromagnetic phenomena. ?Einstein

3. This is the most incredible thing that has ever happened to me in my life. It is like you use a 15-inch cannon to bombard a piece of paper and you are hit by the rebounded cannonball. Same as in. It vividly describes the difficulties encountered by Thomson's model, that is, atoms cannot be balls with a uniform mass distribution and a size of 1 angstrom. ?Rutherford

4. Strings are like a piece of physics that should appear in the 21st century, but accidentally fell into the 20th century. ?Witten

5. Physicists always think that all you need to start is: given such and such conditions, what results will emerge? ?Feynman

6. The task of physics is to discover universal laws of nature. Because one of the simplest forms of such a law is the invariance of a certain physical quantity, the search for conserved quantities is not only reasonable, but also an extremely important research direction. ?Laue

7. The laws of physics cannot be obtained by "thinking" alone. We should also devote ourselves to observation and experiment. ?Planck

8. I can tell you with certainty: No one really understands quantum mechanics. ?Dirac

9. Gravity, electric interaction and magnetic interaction can be clearly displayed at very far places, so they can be observed with the naked eye; but there may be other interactions. force, their distance is so small that it is impossible to observe. ?Newton

10. All science is either physics or stamp collecting. ?Russeff

11. Experimental physics is closely related to theoretical physics. It is impossible to conduct experiments without theory. But science will not advance if it only stays in theory without experimenting. ?Ding Zhaozhong

12. Experiments can overturn theories, but theories can never overturn experiments. ?Ding Zhaozhong

13. (Newton's) "Principia" will become an immortal monument of profound wisdom. It shows us the greatest law of the universe and is higher than all other products of human thought (at that time) The masterpiece above, the discovery of this simple and universal law, has given glory to human wisdom by the vastness and diversity of objects it encompasses. ?Laplace

14. Scientists do not rely on individual ideas, but integrate the wisdom of thousands of people. All people think about a problem, and each person does their part of the work, adding to In the great building of knowledge being built. ?Rutherford

15. People who are stubborn about the old theory of light would be better off starting from its own principles and proposing experimental explanations. And, if he fails in this effort, he should acknowledge these facts. ?Thomas. Yang

16. Give me a fulcrum and I can lift the entire earth. ?Archimedes

17. The beauty of the equation is far more important than conforming to the experimental results. ?Dirac

18. The most obvious phenomenon in the experiments of electricity and magnetism is the interaction between objects that are quite far away from each other. Therefore, the first step in turning these phenomena into science is to determine the magnitude and direction of the forces between objects. ?Maxwell
