While admitting Cicero's chief fame as an orator, Parenti presents Cicero as a hypocrite, a sycophant, and a devious flatterer as well as noting abuse of power.

" While cheerfully admitting the sufficiency of Immanuel ’ s death to have redeemed all mankind, had all the sins of the whole human species been equally imputed to him ; and had he, as the Universal Representative, sustained that curse of the law which was due to all mankind ; yet we cannot perceive any solid reason to conclude, that his propitiatory sufferings are sufficient for the expiation of sins which he did not bear, or for the redemption of sinners whom he did not represent, as a sponsor, when he expired on the cross.

" While admitting that the soul is the better part of a man, and the body the weaker, Cebes is not ready to infer that because the body may be perceived as existing after death, the soul must therefore continue to exist as well.

While the idea of shared electron pairs provides an effective qualitative picture of covalent bonding, quantum mechanics is needed to understand the nature of these bonds and predict the structures and properties of simple molecules.

While the diagrams are applied primarily to quantum field theory, they can also be used in other fields, such as solid-state theory.

While Maxwell's equations are consistent within special and general relativity, there are some quantum mechanical situations in which Maxwell's equations are significantly inaccurate: including extremely strong fields ( see Euler – Heisenberg Lagrangian ) and extremely short distances ( see vacuum polarization ).

While this is extremely easy to implement on sufficiently simple theories, there are many situations where other methods of quantization yield more efficient procedures for computing quantum amplitudes.

While quantum mechanics traditionally described the world of the very small, it is also needed to explain certain recently investigated macroscopic systems such as superconductors and superfluids.

* While the seemingly " exotic " behavior of matter posited by quantum mechanics and relativity theory become more apparent when dealing with particles of extremely small size or velocities approaching the speed of light, the laws of classical Newtonian physics remain accurate in predicting the behavior of the vast majority of " large " objects ( on the order of the size of large molecules or bigger ) at velocities much smaller than the velocity of light.

While clearly contributing to the field, he did not accept many of the more " philosophical consequences and interpretations " of quantum mechanics, such as the lack of deterministic causality.

While quantum mechanics primarily applies to the atomic regimes of matter and energy, some systems exhibit quantum mechanical effects on a large scale-superfluidity, the frictionless flow of a liquid at temperatures near absolute zero, is one well-known example.

While a classical three-bit state and a quantum three-qubit state are both eight-dimensional vectors, they are manipulated quite differently for classical or quantum computation.

While confirming that quantum mechanics and gravity are indeed consistent at reasonable energies, it is clear that near or above the fundamental cutoff of our effective quantum theory of gravity ( the cutoff is generally assumed to be of the order of the Planck scale ), a new model of nature will be needed.

While it is true that a bipartite quantum state must be entangled in order for it to produce non-local correlations, there exist entangled states that do not produce such correlations.

While the results were not surprising since gravity was known to act on everything, including light ( see tests of general relativity and the Pound-Rebka falling photon experiment ), the self-interference of the quantum mechanical wave of a massive fermion in a gravitational field had never been experimentally confirmed before.

While these result in some contradictions and lack completeness in a mathematical sense ( being based on axioms that are " merely " self-evident, but not robust under the stresses of radical scepticism ), the paradoxes can nonetheless be analysed rationally using the subatomic applications of quantum cosmology-particularly through the employment of the Schrödinger wave equations.

While the value of α can be estimated from the values of the constants appearing in any of its definitions, the theory of quantum electrodynamics ( QED ) provides a way to measure α directly using the quantum Hall effect or the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron.

While de Broglie – Bohm theory has Lagrangians and Hamilton-Jacobi equations as a primary focus and backdrop, with the icon of the quantum potential, Bohmian mechanics considers the continuity equation as primary and has the guiding equation as its icon.
