It's hard to explain quantum mechanics even when you understand them.

    It's a superposition of knowledge and ignorance.

    The more you know the less you know

    This isn't even a joke, it's literally true in quantum mechanics.

    Thank you for explaining the joke, I now know less.

    You know nothing, but you know precisely about what you know nothing.

    There’s an old joke about quantum mechanics professors starting their first lecture with something along the lines of “right now, some of you probably understand quantum mechanics. By the end of the semester, if I did my job right, none of us will understand it.”
