“A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years but a photograph always remains the same.

“I find the idea quite intolerable that an electron exposed to radiation should choose of its own free will not only its moment to jump off but its direction. In that case I would rather be a cobbler, or even an employee in a gaming house, than a physicist.”
