More quotes by Richard P. Feynman
You can’t say A is made of B or vice versa. All mass is interaction.
Richard P. Feynman
It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.
Richard P. Feynman
People who wish to analyze nature without using mathematics must settle for a reduced understanding.
Richard P. Feynman
... it is impossible to explain honestly the beauties of the laws of nature in a way that people can feel, without their having some deep understanding of mathematics. I am sorry, but this seems to be the case.
Richard P. Feynman
We are lucky to live in an age in which we are still making discoveries.
Richard P. Feynman
The electron is a theory. But the theory is so good we can almost consider them real.
Richard P. Feynman
Unless a thing can be defined by measurement, it has no place in a theory. And since an accurate value of the momentum of a localized particle cannot be defined by measurement it therefore has no place in the theory.
Richard P. Feynman
It is important to realize that in physics today, we have no knowledge of what energy is
Richard P. Feynman
What I cannot create, I do not understand.
Richard P. Feynman
Progress in science comes when experiments contradict theory.
Richard P. Feynman
We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.
Richard P. Feynman
The inside of a computer is as dumb as hell but it goes like mad!
Richard P. Feynman
Scientific views end in awe and mystery, lost at the edge in uncertainty, but they appear to be so deep and so impressive that the theory that it is all arranged as a stage for God to watch man's struggle for good and evil seems inadequate.
Richard P. Feynman
Know your place in the world and evaluate yourself fairly, not in terms of the naïve ideals of your own youth, nor in terms of what you erroneously imagine your teacher's ideals are.
Richard P. Feynman
It is simple, therefore it is beautiful
Richard P. Feynman
From a long view of the history of mankind the most significant event of the nineteenth century will be judged as Maxwell's discovery of the laws of electrodynamics.
Richard P. Feynman
To develop working ideas efficiently, I try to fail as fast as I can.
Richard P. Feynman
Victory usually goes to those green enough to underestimate the monumental hurdles they are facing.
Richard P. Feynman
It does not matter who you are, or how smart you are, or what title you have, or how many of you there are, and certainly not how many papers your side has published, if your prediction is wrong then your hypothesis is wrong. Period.
Richard P. Feynman
Physicists like to think that all you have to do is say, these are the conditions, now what happens next?
