The quantum theory of the world from "summary" of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics by Carlo Rovelli
In the deep heart of things, in the heart of the world, at the heart of what we find in space and time, there is something astoundingly strange: the quantum theory of the world. This theory tells us that all things are made of quanta. It tells us that the quanta are tiny grains of reality, born out of nothing. They are not a part of the world; they are the world itself. These quanta are not things; they are not entities. They are only tendencies to exist. They are the world as it appears when we do not look at it, when we do not ask questions about it. They are the invisible threads that weave the texture of the world. The quantum theory of the world reveals to us a reality that is not made of things, but of interactions. It tells us that the world is a network of relations. It tells us that the particles we see are not things in themselves, but the result...
