"One can give good reasons why reality cannot at all be represented by a continuous field.
From the quantum phenomena it appears to follow with certainty that a finite system of finite energy can be completely described by a finite set of numbers (quantum numbers).
This does not seem in accordance with continuum theory, and must lead to an attempt to find a purely algebraic theory of the description of reality..."
Did he at the last moment lose faith in his quest for a Generalized Theory of Gravitation?
