The quantum world is objective but objectless. - Nick Herbert

Bell himself managed to devise such a proof which rejects all models of reality possessing the property of "locality". This proof has since become known as Bells theorem. It asserts that no local model of reality can underlie the quantum facts. Bell's theorem says that reality must be non-local.

Physicists cannot explain atoms to their children, not because we are ignorant but because we know too much.

The gist of Bell's theorem is this: no local model of reality can explain the results of a particular experiment.
