"There are many different kinds of radioactive waste and each has its own half-life so, just to be on the safe side and to simplify matters, I base my calculations on the worst one and that's plutonium."

"And these little things may not seem like much but after a while they take you off on a direction where you may be a long way off from what other people have been thinking about."

People

"The idea is if you use those two shapes and try to colour the plane with them so the colours match, then the only way that you can do this is to produce a pattern which never repeats itself."

Idea

"Well, I don't know if I can comment on Kant or Hegel because I'm no real philosopher in the sense of knowing what these people have said in any detail so let me not comment on that too much."

People

"So what I'm saying is why don't we think about changing Schrodinger's equation at some level when masses become too big at the level that you might have to worry about Einstein's general relativity."

Relativity

"As for morality, well that's all tied up with the question of consciousness."

Morality

"This book is about physics and its about physics and its relationship with mathematics and how they seem to be intimately related and to what extent can you explore this relationship and trust it."

Trust

"As you say, the way string theory requires all these extra dimensions and this comes from certain consistency requirements about how string should behave and so on."

Consistency

"Ordinary photons do have spin, they have a notion of helicity so they spin around their direction on motion."

Direction

"But I think it is a serious issue to wonder about the other platonic absolutes of say beauty and morality."

Beauty

"Well, gauge theory is very fundamental to our understanding of physical forces these days. But they are also dependent on a mathematical idea, which has been around for longer than gauge theory has."
