Freeman Dyson
If you go to London now, not everything is beautiful, but it's amazingly better than it was. And the Thames is certainly a lot better: There are fish in the Thames.

If you're in the business world, that's what's expected: You should go bust and then start again on something else. So it's a much more relaxed kind of a culture. It's also competitive, but not in such a vicious way. I think the academic world is actually much more destructive of young people.
Freeman Dyson

Freeman Dyson
If you don't have a nasty obituary you probably didn't matter.
Freeman Dyson
Everything in my life was luck.
Freeman Dyson
The laws of nature are constructed in such a way as to make the universe as interesting as possible.
Freeman Dyson
The media always tries to make everything into a disaster, but it's mostly rubbish.
Freeman Dyson
I think science and religion should be separate.
Freeman Dyson
We should try to introduce our children to science today as a rebellion against poverty and ugliness and militarism and economic injustice.
Freeman Dyson
So long as you have courage and a sense of humor, it is never too late to start life afresh.
Freeman Dyson
[John Wheeler] rejuvenated general relativity he made it an experimental subject and took it away from the mathematicians
Freeman Dyson
I like people who are working on practical things and who are working in teams. It's not so important to get the glory. It's much more important to get something that works. It's a better way to live.
Freeman Dyson
Technology must be guided and driven by ethics if it is to do more than provide new toys for the rich.
Freeman Dyson
