Prediction is very difficult, especially if it's about the future.
From Niels Bohr
Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real.

It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how Nature is. Physics concerns what we say about Nature.
Every great and deep difficulty bears in itself its own solution. It forces us to change our thinking in order to find it.
When it comes to atoms, language can be used only as in poetry. The poet, too, is not nearly so concerned with describing facts as with creating images.
