Here are several notable and insightful quotes attributed to Professor Sandu (Alexandru) Popescu, a prominent physicist known for his contributions to quantum theory, particularly quantum nonlocality and foundations of quantum mechanics:

Quotes by Prof. Sandu Popescu on Quantum Physics:
- “Quantum mechanics is not just a theory about the microworld. It is a theory about information, probabilities, and the limits of what can be known.”
- “Nonlocality is the most characteristic feature of quantum mechanics — it tells us that the world is fundamentally interconnected, in a way that defies classical intuition.”
- “The quantum world is not a fuzzy version of the classical one. It’s a different world altogether.”
- “Entanglement is not about particles communicating faster than light. It’s about correlations that arise from a deeper, non-classical structure of reality.”
- “We don’t know why the world is quantum. But the quantum rules are not arbitrary — they appear to be the most general consistent framework for probabilistic theories.”
- “It is not that quantum mechanics is strange. It is that our classical intuitions are inadequate.”
