Max Müller'in käännös, 1879 (kvanttimekaniikan hiffaaminen oli vuosikymmenten päässä tulevaisuudessa):

5. It* stirs and it stirs not; it is far, and likewise near . It is inside of all this, and it is outside of all this.

* puruSa, aatman, todellinen itse

Max Müllerin käännöksessä paradoxi, että Se liikkuu ja ei-liiku, on kaukana ja likellä eksetera

Richard Feynman, fyssan nobelisti:

I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.
chapter 6, “Probability and Uncertainty — the Quantum Mechanical View of Nature,” p. 129
Do not keep saying to yourself, if you can possibly avoid it, "But how can it be like that?" because you will get "down the drain", into a blind alley from which nobody has yet escaped. Nobody knows how it can be like that.
