Richard P. Feynman
To not know math is a severe limitation to understanding the world.
Richard P. Feynman
It appears that there are enormous differences of opinion as to the probability of a failure with loss of vehicle and of human life. The estimates range from roughly 1 in 100 to 1 in 100,000. The higher figures come from the working engineers, and the very low figures from management.
Richard P. Feynman
There in wine is found the great generalization: all life is fermentation.
