What I am going to tell you about is what we teach our physics students in the third or fourth year of… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“Of course, I am interested, but I would not dare to talk about them. In talking about the impact of ideas in… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
So, ultimately, in order to understand nature it may be necessary to have a deeper understanding of mathematical relationships. But the real… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We absolutely must leave room for doubt or there is no progress and there is no learning. There is no learning without… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
I learned a lot of different things from different schools. MIT is a very good place…. It has developed for itself a… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“I believe that we must attack these things in which we do not believe. Not attack by the method of cutting off… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
People who wish to analyze nature without using mathematics must settle for a reduced understanding. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
One cannot understand... the universality of laws of nature, the relationship of things, without an understanding of mathematics. There is no other… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“Will you understand what I'm going to tell you? ... No, you're not going to be able to understand it. ... That… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
One does not, by knowing all the physical laws as we know them today, immediately obtain an understanding of anything much. I… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“They didn't put two and two together. They didn't even know what they knew. I don't know what's the matter with people,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
“Philosophers have said before that one of the fundamental requisites of science is that whenever you set up the same conditions, the same thing… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
My rule is, when you are unhappy, think about it. But when you're happy, don't. Why spoil it? You're probably happy for some ridiculous… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
Trying to understand the way nature works involves a most terrible test of human reasoning ability. It involves subtle trickery, beautiful tightropes of logic… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
Mathematics is a language plus reasoning; it is like a language plus logic. Mathematics is a tool for reasoning. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
It is necessary for the very existence of science that minds exist which do not allow that nature must satisfy some preconceived conditions. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
“There was a Princess Somebody of Denmark sitting at a table with a number of people around her, and I saw an empty chair… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
All the time you're saying to yourself, 'I could do that, but I won't,'--which is just another way of saying that you can't. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
“There's a big difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.” — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
The fact that you are not sure means that it is possible that there is another way someday. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
