You can recognize truth by its beauty and simplicity. When you get it right, it is obvious that it is right -- at least if you have any experience -- because usually what happens is that more comes out than goes in.

More quotes by Richard P. Feynman
I, a universe of atoms, an atom in the universe.
Richard P. Feynman
All we know so far is what doesn't work.
Richard P. Feynman
If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.
Richard P. Feynman
I think we can safely assume that no one understands quantum mechanics.
Richard P. Feynman
If I say [electrons] behave like particles I give the wrong impression also if I say they behave like waves. They behave in their own inimitable way, which technically could be called a quantum mechanical way. They behave in a way that is like nothing that you have seen before.
Richard P. Feynman
The game I play is a very interesting one. It's imagination, in a tight straightjacket.
Richard P. Feynman
It is important to realize that in physics today, we have no knowledge of what energy is
Richard P. Feynman
Do not read so much, look about you and think of what you see there.
Richard P. Feynman
Victory usually goes to those green enough to underestimate the monumental hurdles they are facing.
Richard P. Feynman
Nature's imagination far surpasses our own.
Richard P. Feynman
What I cannot create, I do not understand.
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
I have a limited intelligence and I've used it in a particular direction.
Richard P. Feynman
I don't feel frightened by not knowing things.
Richard P. Feynman
This is not very important what I'm doing. I'm just proving something.
Richard P. Feynman
Don't worry about anything. Go out and have a good time.
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
Tell your son to stop trying to fill your head with science - for to fill your heart with love is enough!
Richard P. Feynman
There is no harm in doubt and skepticism, for it is through these that new discoveries are made.
Richard P. Feynman
We find that the statements of science are not of what is true and what is not true, but statements of what is known with different degrees of certainty: It is very much more likely that so and so is true than that it is not true.
Richard P. Feynman
