More quotes by Richard P. Feynman
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers of the preceding generation.
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
Nature's imagination far surpasses our own.
Richard P. Feynman
This is not very important what I'm doing. I'm just proving something.
Richard P. Feynman
Light is something like raindrops each little lump of light is called a photon and if the light is all one color, all the raindrops are the same.
Richard P. Feynman
The work I have done has, already, been adequately rewarded and recognized. Imagination reaches out repeatedly trying to achieve some higher level of understanding, until suddenly I find myself momentarily alone before one new corner of nature's pattern of beauty and true majesty revealed. That was my reward.
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
No problem is too small or too trivial if we can really do something about it.
Richard P. Feynman
The electron is a theory. But the theory is so good we can almost consider them real.
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
To those who do not know mathematics it is difficult to get across a real feeling as to the beauty, the deepest beauty, of nature ... If you want to learn about nature, to appreciate nature, it is necessary to understand the language that she speaks in.
Richard P. Feynman
Do not read so much, look about you and think of what you see there.
Richard P. Feynman
We are trying to prove ourselves wrong as quickly as possible, because only in that way can we find progress.
Richard P. Feynman
The game I play is a very interesting one. It's imagination, in a tight straightjacket.
Richard P. Feynman
I have to keep going to find out ultimately what is the matter with it in the end.
Richard P. Feynman
When things are going well, something will go wrong. / When things just can't get any worse, they will. / Anytime things appear to be going better, you have overlooked something.
Richard P. Feynman
Turbulence is the most important unsolved problem of classical physics.
Richard P. Feynman
We scientists are clever — too clever — are you not satisfied? Is four square miles in one bomb not enough? Men are still thinking. Just tell us how big you want it!
Richard P. Feynman
It's because somebody knows something about it that we can't talk about physics. It's the things that nobody knows anything about we can discuss.
Richard P. Feynman
Agnostic for me would be trying to weasel out and sound a little nicer than I am about this.
Richard P. Feynman
