Bernard d'Espagnat quotes

The doctrine that the world is made up of objects whose existence is independent of human consciousness turns out to be in conflict with quantum mechanics and with facts established by experiment. (Bernard d'Espagnat)

Science doesn't give authentically access to the Real in the ontological meaning of the word, but only to the links between phenomena.
