More quotes by Richard P. Feynman
The inside of a computer is as dumb as hell but it goes like mad!
Richard P. Feynman
Tell your son to stop trying to fill your head with science - for to fill your heart with love is enough!
Richard P. Feynman
The exception tests the rule.
Richard P. Feynman
There is enough energy in a single cubic meter of space to boil all the oceans in the world.
Richard P. Feynman
You see, I get such fun out of thinking that I don't want to destroy this most pleasant machine that makes life such a big kick.
Richard P. Feynman
The present situation in physics is as if we know chess, but we don't know one or two rules.
Richard P. Feynman
People may come along and argue philosophically that they like one better than another but we have learned from much experience that all philosophical intuitions about what nature is going to do fail.
Richard P. Feynman
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.
Richard P. Feynman
When I found out that Santa Claus wasn't real, I wasn't upset rather, I was relieved that there was a much simpler phenomenon to explain how so many children all over the world got presents on the same night! The story had been getting pretty complicated -- it was getting out of hand.
Richard P. Feynman
Poets say science takes away from the beauty of the stars - mere globs of gas atoms. I, too, can see the stars on a desert night, and feel them. But do I see less or more?
Richard P. Feynman
No one really understands quantum mechanics.
Richard P. Feynman
There is a computer disease that anybody who works with computers knows about. It's a very serious disease and it interferes completely with the work. The trouble with computers is that you 'play' with them!
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
The fact that you are not sure means that it is possible that there is another way someday.
Richard P. Feynman
Every instrument that has been designed to be sensitive enough to detect weak light has always ended up discovering that the same thing: light is made of particles.
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
We are not to tell nature what she’s gotta be... She's always got better imagination than we have.
Richard P. Feynman
When the problem [quantum chromodynamics] is finally solved, it will all be by imagination. Then there will be some big thing about the great way it was done. But it's simple -it will all be by imagination, and persistence.
Richard P. Feynman
Study hard what interests you the most in the most undisciplined, irreverent and original manner possible.
Richard P. Feynman
Once we were driving in the midwest and we pulled into a McDonald's. Someone came up to me and asked me why I have Feynman diagrams all over my van. I replied, Because I am Feynman! The young man went, Ahhhhh!
