About this Quote

Albert Einstein's famous quote "God does not play dice" is a referral to the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Einstein was a strong believer in determinism, the concept that deep space is governed by laws that figure out the outcome of events. He thought that deep space was deterministic which randomness and opportunity had no place in it. He was opposed to the concept of quantum mechanics, which depends on likelihood and randomness to explain the behavior of particles. By saying "God does not play dice," Einstein was expressing his belief that deep space is not governed by possibility, however by laws that determine the result of events. He thought that deep space was deterministic which randomness and possibility had no place in it. Einstein's quote is a reminder that the universe is not a video game of opportunity, however an intricate system governed by laws that figure out the outcome of events.
