superpositions of states can interfere with each other.
For example, let a state ∣ψ⟩ be
∣ψ⟩=α∣0⟩+β∣1⟩
then let Operator H be
H∣0⟩=21∣0⟩+21∣1⟩H∣1⟩=21∣0⟩−21∣1⟩
so if there's a state like
HH∣0⟩
=21H∣0⟩(21∣0⟩+21∣1⟩)+21H∣1⟩(21∣0⟩−21∣1⟩)
=(21+21)∣0⟩+(21−21)∣1⟩=∣0⟩
so the ∣1⟩ destructively interfere and the ∣0⟩ constructively interfere.
