Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that's the end of you.

More quotes by Richard P. Feynman
I have a limited intelligence and I've used it in a particular direction.
Richard P. Feynman
I don't think that the laws can be considered to be like God because they have been figured out.
Richard P. Feynman
We've learned from experience that the truth will out.
Richard P. Feynman
The worthwhile problems are the ones you can really solve or help solve, the ones you can really contribute something to... No problem is too small or too trivial if we can really do something about it.
Richard P. Feynman
This is the key of modern science and is the beginning of the true understanding of nature. This idea. That to look at the things, to record the details, and to hope that in the information thus obtained, may lie a clue to one or another of a possible theoretical interpretation.
Richard P. Feynman
You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things... It doesn't frighten me.
Richard P. Feynman
Learn what the rest of the world is like. The variety is worthwhile.
Richard P. Feynman
Nature has a great simplicity and therefore a great beauty.
Richard P. Feynman
If all of this, all the life of a stream of water, can be nothing but a pile of atoms, how much more is possible?
Richard P. Feynman
Einstein was a giant. His head was in the clouds, but his feet were on the ground. But those of us who are not that tall have to choose!
Richard P. Feynman
Strange! I don't understand how it is that we can write mathematical expressions and calculate what the thing is going to do without being able to picture it.
Richard P. Feynman
By honest I don't mean that you only tell what's true. But you make clear the entire situation. You make clear all the information that is required for somebody else who is intelligent to make up their mind.
Richard P. Feynman
Nature...cannot be fooled!
Richard P. Feynman
Computer science is not as old as physics it lags by a couple of hundred years. However, this does not mean that there is significantly less on the computer scientist's plate than on the physicist's: younger it may be, but it has had a far more intense upbringing!
Richard P. Feynman
I think we can safely assume that no one understands quantum mechanics.
Richard P. Feynman
Today's brains are yesterday's mashed potatoes.
Richard P. Feynman
It is odd, but on the infrequent occasions when I have been called upon in a formal place to play the bongo drums, the introducer never seems to find it necessary to mention that I also do theoretical physics.
Richard P. Feynman
If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.
Richard P. Feynman
An ordinary fool isn't a faker an honest fool is all right. But a dishonest fool is terrible!
Richard P. Feynman
Science is a process for learning about nature in which competing ideas about how the world works are measured against observations.
Richard P. Feynman
