      “I want to emphasize that light comes in this form-particles. It is very important to know that light behaves like particles, especially for those of you who have gone to school, where you were probably told something about light behaving like waves. I’m telling you the way it does behave- like particles.”

      Richard Feynman, “QED The Strange Theory of Light and Matter.” Introduction, Page 15.
