Relativity of spacetime
“It begins to look as if we ourselves, by a last minute decision, have an influence on what a photon will do when it has already accomplished most of its doing…we have to say that we ourselves have an undeniable part in shaping what we have always called the past. The past is not really the past until it has been registered. Or put it another way, the past has no meaning or existence unless it exists as a record in the present.” — John Wheeler
“If we attempt to attribute an objective meaning to the quantum state of a single system, curious paradoxes appear: Quantum effects not only mimic instantaneous action-at-a-distance, but also, as seen here, influence on future actions by past events, even after these events have been irrevocably recorded.” — Asher Peres
