  • I saw the whole universe laid out before me, a vast shining machine of indescribable beauty and complexity. Its design was too intricate for me to understand, and I knew I could never begin to grasp more than the smallest idea of its purpose. But I sensed that every part of it, from quark to quasar, was unique and - in some mysterious way - significant.

    Unique   Ideas   Design  
    R. J. Anderson (2011). “Ultraviolet”, p.290, Carolrhoda Lab
  • I believe in God the way I believe in quarks. People whose business it is to know about quantum physics or religion tell me they have good reason to believe that quarks and God exist. And they tell me that if I wanted to devote my life to learning what they've learned, I'd find quarks and God just like they did.

    Mary Doria Russell (1996). “The Sparrow”, Random House
  • The world of the quark has everything to do with a jaguar circling in the night.

  • Fifty-five crystal spheres geared to God's crankshaft is my idea of a satisfying universe. I can't think of anything more trivial than quarks, quasars, big bangs and black holes.

    Tom Stoppard (1999). “Tom Stoppard: plays”
  • Supersymmetry is a theory which stipulates that for every known particle there should be a partner particle. For instance, the electron should be paired with a supersymmetric 'selectron,' quarks ought to have 'squark' partners, and so on.

  • The world is not made of anti-mu mesons, quarks, and photons, and electromagnetic fields. Reality is made of words.

  • Every atom in your body is the same quark in different places at the same moment in time.

    David Eagleman (2009). “Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives”, p.84, Vintage
  • What of course I would like to be writing is the story of the Red and White Dwarves and their Remembering Mirror, their space rocket (powered by anti-gravity), their attendant entities Hadron, Gluon, Pion, Lepton, and Muon, and the Charmed Quarks and the Coloured Quarks. But we can't all be physicists.

    Doris Lessing (2012). “The Sirian Experiments (Canopus in Argos: Archives Series, Book 3)”, p.8, HarperCollins UK
  • The top quark was discovered in 1995 and since then the Higgs has become an because the standard model was incomplete with out it.

  • For five hundred dollars, I'll name a subatomic particle after you. Some of my satisfied customers include Arthur C. Quark and George Meson.

  • String theory has the potential to show that all of the wondrous happenings in the universe - from the frantic dance of subatomic quarks to the stately waltz of orbiting binary stars; from the primordial fireball of the big bang to the majestic swirl of heavenly galaxies - are reflections of one, grand physical principle, one master equation.

    Brian Greene (2010). “The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory”, p.5, W. W. Norton & Company
  • We called the new [fourth] quark the "charmed quark" because we were pleased, and fascinated by the symmetry it brought to the subnuclear world. "Charm" also means a "a magical device to avert evil," and in 1970 it was realized that the old three quark theory ran into very serious problems. ... As if by magic the existence of the charmed quark would [solve those problems].

  • So if we're all quarks and electrons ..." he begins. What?" We could make love and it would be nothing more than quarks and electrons rubbing together." Better than that," I say. "Nothing really 'rubs together' in the microscopic world. Matter never really touches other matter, so we could make love without any of our atoms touching at all. Remember that electrons sit on the outside of atoms, repelling other electrons. So we could make love and actually repel each other at the same time.

  • What I try to do in the book is to trace the chain of relationships running from elementary particles, fundamental building blocks of matter everywhere in the universe, such as quarks, all the way to complex entities, and in particular complex adaptive system like jaguars.

  • Newtonian physics runs into problems at the subatomic level. Down there--in the land of hadrons, quarks, and Schrödinger's cat--things gent freaky. The cool rationality of Isaac Newton gives way to the bizarre unpredictability of Lewis Carroll.

  • Where nature goes to create stars, galaxies, quarks and leptons, you and I also go to create ourselves.

    Deepak Chopra (1997). “Ageless Body, Timeless Mind: The Quantum Alternative to Growing Old”, Random House Large Print Publishing
  • The mathematics clearly called for a set of underlying elementary objects-at that time we needed three types of them-elementary objects that could be combined three at a time in different ways to make all the heavy particles we knew. ... I needed a name for them and called them quarks, after the taunting cry of the gulls, "Three quarks for Muster mark," from Finnegan's Wake by the Irish writer James Joyce.
