Erwin Schrodinger Quotes

A collection of quotes by Erwin Schrodinger.

Erwin Schrödinger (1887-1961) was an Austrian physicist who made significant contributions to quantum mechanics. He is known for his wave equation, now called the Schrödinger equation, which describes how quantum particles evolve over time. Schrödinger's work in the field of wave mechanics laid the foundation for understanding the behavior of atoms and molecules. He shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1933 with Paul Dirac for their work in this area. Schrödinger also had an interest in biology and explored the idea of applying quantum principles to living organisms.

The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.
