"All known theories of physics - from classical mechanics all the way to general relativity quantum field theory - can be written in this way: a collection of objects and a recipe to build a Lagrangian from those objects, with the movement of those objects determined by a path that minimizes the Lagrangian."

I think Quantum Mechanics doesn't reduce to this, it's a probabilistic theory.

A similar take from Peter Woit:
