The Paris Review

2015-10-10

“For me, relativity also suggests the relationship between two things in a comparison—the ligature of the word like, which chimes through my poem—whose interplay enables us to think.”

“The so-called wave-particle duality is the notion that quantum objects behave like waves until you try to locate them, when that behavior disappears. Physicists now believe that it and Heisenberg’s famous uncertainty principle are just two manifestations of the same underlying phenomenon.”
