More From Erwin Schrodinger

String theory is the most developed theory with the capacity to unite general relativity and quantum mechanics in a consistent manner. i do believe the universe is consistent, and therefore i do believe that general relativity and quantum mechanics should be put together in a manner that makes sense.
Believe Together Mechanic
... if we take the universe of 'fitting,' countless coats 'fit' backs, and countless boots 'fit' feet, on which they are not practically fitted; countless stones 'fit' gaps in walls into which no one seeks to fit them actually. in the same way countless opinions 'fit' realities, and countless truths are valid, tho no thinker ever thinks them.
Wall Truth Reality
The theory of relativity confers an absolute meaning on a magnitude which in classical theory has only a relative significance: the velocity of light. the velocity of light is to the theory of relativity as the elementary quantum of action is to the quantum theory: it is its absolute core.
Science Light Velocity
The incomplete knowledge of a system must be an essential part of every formulation in quantum theory. quantum theoretical laws must be of a statistical kind. to give an example: we know that the radium atom emits alpha-radiation. quantum theory can give us an indication of the probability that the alpha-particle will leave the nucleus in unit time, but it cannot predict at what precise point in time the emission will occur, for this is uncertain in principle.
Science Incomplete Knowledge Law
Theoretical physicists accept the need for mathematical beauty as an act of faith... for example, the main reason why the theory of relativity is so universally accepted is its mathematical beauty.

The shell game that we play ... is technically called 'renormalization'. but no matter how clever the word, it is still what i would call a dippy process! having to resort to such hocus-pocus has prevented us from proving that the theory of quantum electrodynamics is mathematically self-consistent. it's surprising that the theory still hasn't been proved self-consistent one way or the other by now; i suspect that renormalization is not mathematically legitimate.
