It’s nice the know the computer understands the situation, but I would like to understand it too.

The miracle of the appropriateness of the language of mathematics for the formulation of the laws of physics is a wonderful gift which we neither understand nor deserve.

There are two kinds of people in the world: Johnny Von Neumann and the rest of us.

The great mathematician fully, almost ruthlessly, exploits the domain of permissible reasoning and skirts the impermissible. That his recklessness does not lead him into a morass of contradictions is a miracle in itself: certainly it is hard to believe that our reasoning power was brought, by Darwin's process of natural selection, to the perfection which it seems to possess.

Solipsism may be logically consistent with present Quantum Mechanics, Monism in the sense of Materialism is not.

When the province of physical theory was extended to encompass microscopic phenomena through the creation of quantum mechanics, the concept of consciousness came to the fore again. It was not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to the consciousness.

OK, so the computer has understood, but what about me ?

It was not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to the consciousness.

[T]he laws of quantum mechanics itself cannot be formulated ... without recourse to the concept of consciousness.

The full meaning of life, the collective meaning of all human desires, is fundamentally a mystery beyond our grasp. As a young man, I chafed at this state of affairs. But by now I have made peace with it. I even feel a certain honor to be associated with such a mystery.
