The "Spirit" of Copenhagen

"Nature isn't classical."

In 1981, the American physicist Richard Feynman spoke at a computing conference, observing that “Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical, and by golly it’s a wonderful problem, because it doesn’t look so easy.”
