What we observe as material bodies and forces are nothing but shapes and variations in the structure of space.
Erwin Schrodinger
Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe.
Erwin Schrodinger
The mathematical framework of quantum theory has passed countless successful tests and is now universally accepted as a consistent and accurate description of all atomic phenomena.
Erwin Schrodinger
The verbal interpretation, on the other hand, i.e. the metaphysics of quantum physics, is on far less solid ground. In fact, in more than forty years physicists have not been able to provide a clear metaphysical model.
Erwin Schrodinger
I don't like it, and I'm sorry I ever had anything to do with it.
Erwin Schrodinger

Erwin Schrodinger
For a solitary animal egoism is a virtue that tends to preserve and improve the species: in any kind of community it becomes a destructive vice.
Erwin Schrodinger
