"Newly acquired insights are at first only 
half understood by the one who begets them, 
and appear as complete nonsense to all others ..."
said Niels Bohr (who was also a Taoist [1])

Bohr also declared: "Any new idea which does not 
appear very strange at the outset, does not have 
a chance of being a vital discovery."

Actually, R. Jozsa wrote something here 
about the permanence (no birth, no cloning,
no death, no deleting) of quantum states,
and about the subtle relations between quantum
states and quantum informations (eventually carried
by those states)

For 'very strange at the outset' connections between
quantish matters and human minds try Andrei Khrennikov
