Top 10 most inspiring quotes by Max Born
- The belief that there is only one truth and that oneself is in possession of it seems to me the root of all the evil that is in the world.
- I am now convinced that theoretical physics is actual philosophy.
- Those who say that the study of science makes a man an atheist, must be rather silly people.
- We have sought for firm ground and found none. The deeper we penetrate, the more restless becomes the universe; all is rushing about and vibrating in a wild dance.
- There are two objectionable types of believers: those who believe the incredible, and those who believe that “belief” must be discarded and replaced by “the scientific method.
- Science?is so greatly opposed to history and tradition that it cannot be absorbed by our civilization.
- It is true that many scientists are not philosophically minded and have hitherto shown much skill and ingenuity but little wisdom.
- We need to make a world in which fewer children are born, and in which we take better care of them.
- But in practical affairs, particularly in politics, men are needed who combine human experience and interest in human relations with a knowledge of science and technology.
- Science is not formal logic-it needs the free play of the mind in as great a degree as any other creative art. It is true that this is a gift which can hardly be taught, but its growth can be encouraged in those who already posses it.
Max Born was a German physicist and mathematician who made significant contributions to the fields of quantum mechanics and solid-state physics. He was born on December 11, 1882, in Breslau, Germany (now Wrocław, Poland) and passed away on January 5, 1970, in Göttingen, Germany.
Born studied at the University of Breslau and later completed his Ph.D. at the University of Göttingen under the guidance of famous mathematicians such as David Hilbert and Felix Klein. He worked as a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Frankfurt and later at the University of Göttingen, where he became a colleague and friend of Albert Einstein.
Born’s most significant contribution to physics was his collaboration with Werner Heisenberg in developing the matrix mechanics formulation of quantum mechanics. This work, which they published in 1925, laid the groundwork for the modern understanding of quantum mechanics and earned Born the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1954.
Throughout his career, Born made contributions to a wide range of areas in physics, including the study of crystal structures, the interpretation of wave functions in quantum mechanics, and the nature of the electromagnetic field. He also mentored several prominent physicists, including Enrico Fermi and Wolfgang Pauli.
Aside from his scientific achievements, Born was also known for his humanitarian views and activism. He was a vocal critic of the Nazi regime in Germany and supported the Jewish community during the Holocaust. After World War II, he became a strong advocate for international scientific collaboration and worked to promote peace and disarmament.
