I wrote my epitaph: He started out a particle and ended up a wave.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The solution of the difficulty is that the two mental pictures which experiment lead us to form - the one of the particles, the other of the waves - are both incomplete and have only the validity of analogies which are accurate only in limiting cases.
Life is a wave, which in no two consecutive moments of its existence is composed of the same particles.
I do not keep up with the details of particle physics.
I was brought up as a physicist.
Let no man write my epitaph... When my country takes her place among the nations of the earth, then shall my character be vindicated, then may my epitaph be written.
You're not a wave, you're a part of the ocean.
I haven't written my own epitaph, and I'm not sure I should. Whatever it is, I hope it will be simple, and that it will point people not to me, but to the One I served.
It's not an epitaph. I felt I could look back at my life and get a good story out of it. It's a picture of somebody trying to figure things out. I'm not trying to create some impression about myself. That doesn't interest me.
It is good a philosopher should remind himself, now and then, that he is a particle pontificating on infinity.
One shouldn't write one's own epitaph. I hope people will remember me as one who did her best - and who wasn't an anachronism.
