I think I have spoken enough to you about serious things; which is why I speak [now] of something to which I attribute great value, still too little appreciated - gaiety. It is gaiety, basically, that allows us to have no fear before the problems of life and to find a natural solution to them. (Sophie Taeuber-Arp)

I have found little that is "good" about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all. That is something that you cannot say aloud, or perhaps even think. View quote

I don't suppose that applies so much to other physicists; I think it's a peculiarity of myself that I like to play about with equations, just looking for beautiful mathematical relations which maybe don't have any physical meaning at all. Sometimes they do. View quote
