Parallel Universe Quotes - Page 2

• A pesar de las diferencias culturales, los jóvenes de clase media de todo el mundo parecen vivir sus vidas como en un universo paralelo. Se levantan por la mañana, se ponen sus Levi's y sus Nikes, cogen sus gorras y mochilas y sus reproductores de CD personales Sony y se dirigen a la escuela.

• Era brillante y alegre y creía -probablemente con razón- que las bibliotecas contienen las respuestas a todas las cosas, a todo, y que si no puedes encontrar la información que buscas en la biblioteca, entonces esa información probablemente no existe en este ni en ningún universo paralelo actual o que se conozca jamás. Era considerada y amable, y siempre creía lo mejor de todo el mundo. Era, por encima de todo, una maestra bibliotecaria y sabía dónde encontrar cualquier libro sobre cualquier tema en el menor tiempo posible. Y era maravillosamente desquiciada.

• Si uno echa un vistazo a los planes más fantásticos que se consideran imposibles: teletransporte, impulso warp, universos paralelos, otras dimensiones, inteligencia artificial, pistolas de rayos, se da cuenta de que pueden ser posibles si avanzamos un poco en tecnología.

• I love The West Wing for many reasons. The show has been a fantasy. But we have offered a parallel universe to reality.

• It was life under the Soviet system - we were struggling with every big problem. Publicly, my parents had to queue up to buy food, but were able to live secret lives in their private rooms. With the TV set in the living room, we were able to see Western pop culture -a different reality from what we were living. For me, it was like two different universes existed at the same time, and we got used to being in these parallel universes.

• We don't have enough parallel universes to allow all uses of all junction types - in the absence of quantum computing the combinatorics are not in our favor.

• The quantum theory of parallel universes is not the problem, it is the solution. It is not some troublesome, optional interpretation emerging from arcane theoretical considerations. It is the explanation - the only one that is tenable - of a remarkable and counter-intuitive reality.

• A menudo pienso que somos como la carpa que nada contenta en ese estanque. Vivimos en nuestro propio "estanque", seguros de que nuestro universo sólo consiste en lo familiar y lo visible. Nos negamos con suficiencia a admitir que puedan existir universos o dimensiones paralelos al nuestro, justo fuera de nuestro alcance. Si nuestros científicos inventan conceptos como fuerzas, es sólo porque no pueden visualizar las vibraciones invisibles que llenan el espacio vacío que nos rodea. Algunos científicos se mofan de la mención de dimensiones superiores porque no pueden medirse convenientemente en el laboratorio.

• The most watched programme on the BBC, after the news, is probably 'Doctor Who.' What has happened is that science fiction has been subsumed into modern literature. There are grandparents out there who speak Klingon, who are quite capable of holding down a job. No one would think twice now about a parallel universe.

• Barring a theoretical resolution, which I think is unlikely, you either have to say there are zillions of parallel universes out there that we can't observe at present or you have to say there was a plan. I actually find the argument of the existence of a God who did the planning more compelling than the bubbling of all these multiverses.

• You know how some trees have those ear mushrooms that just grow off, and you could live on one of those mushrooms and not realize that there was stacks and stacks of others? That's how I describe music scenes in New York. That's one of the trippiest things about living here - just how many parallel universes there are that you can be completely unaware of.

• Radio is so cutthroat, but I do feel like the music industry is structured so differently than it used to be. I'm amazed and in awe of artists who can build a parallel universe that's so big and clearly defined that the mainstream finally has to pay attention.

• When I am with my family, then I can just sort of switch off. It's kind of weird, because I go back and I go into this bedroom that I have had since I was a teenager. It is like this parallel universe, because one minute I am on the red carpet and then the next I am hiding out in this room I have had since I was 15.

• I should be the reigning champion. I punch a guy 300 times, he punches me a couple and they call him the champion? In what parallel universe does that make you the winner? I am the champion. I’ve been the champion. Anderson’s ribs have the exact same problem that his hands and his feet have, they’re attached to a cowardly person.

• In some parallel universe, there was a Gansey who could tell Blue that he found the ten inches of her bare calves far more tantalizing than the thirteen cubic feet of bare skin Orla sported. But in this universe, that was Adam’s job. He was in a terrible mood.

• We tend to be so bombarded with information, and we move so quickly, that there's a tendency to treat everything on the surface level and process things quickly. This is antithetical to the kind of openness and perception you have to have to be receptive to poetry.poetry seems to exist in a parallel universe outside daily life in America.
