"Quarts"???? There may be up to 61 quantum fields(Standard Model) that permeates throughout spacetime. There is no such thing as empty space. Even the tiniest measurement of space is teaming with virtual particles, radiation, a measurable vacuum, quantum activity(flux and gravity), and can be weighed. Including the space between subatomic particles. By understanding the Quantum Field Theory(QFT), you would never make such statements about the most tested and most accurate of all scientific Theories. CERN and LHC would not work at all if these theories were off by even the tiniest amount. You would never even claim that actual particles exist.
An analogy would be water. It will cover the entire volume of a space, and is composed of water molecules. The water would be the quantum field, and the water molecules would be the particles making up the field. There are 3 fundamental Quantum forces(electromagnetic, strong, and weak) affecting the field. How the water molecule interact with these forces can change the water molecules to ice, or steam. In an electromagnetic field(water), electrons(water molecules) can collide with each other to produce a photon of light. Now think of these particles moving through spacetime as waves, but can also be counted as tiny particles. Now think of a sea of many quantum fields interacting with other quantum fields and quantum forces throughout spacetime. Each will produce a different kind of ripple(protons, gluons, photons, neutrons, and quarks) in spacetime. This is how matter was created. Obviously, this is an oversimplification, but it is the best I can do. Don
