Rodney A. Brooks Quote

Because quanta are fields, they do not have sharp edges and can spread over large distances, but no matter how spread out they are, each quantum maintains its own identity. If it is absorbed or changes its spin state, it does so as a unit. Because of this all-or-nothing behavior, quanta in many ways mimic the behavior of particles.
