It doesn't seem to me that this fantastically marvelous universe, this tremendous range of time and space and different kinds of animals,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The scale of light can be described by numbers called the frequency and as the numbers get higher, the light goes from… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Therefore psychologically we must keep all the theories in our heads, and every theoretical physicist who is any good knows six or… — 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 do believe that there is a conflict between science and religion ... the spirit or attitude toward the facts is different… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I have approximate answers and possible beliefs… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Any schemes - such as 'think of symmetry laws', or 'put the information in mathematical form', or 'guess equations'- are known to… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
For those who want some proof that physicists are human, the proof is in the idiocy of all the different units which… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We find that the statements of science are not of what is true and what is not true, but statements of what… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
It is surprising that people do not believe that there is imagination in science. It is a very interesting kind of imagination,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong. I have approximate answers… — 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
“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 Image
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 Image
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 Image
Mathematics is a language plus reasoning; it is like a language plus logic. Mathematics is a tool for reasoning. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
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 Image
“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 Image
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 Image
“There's a big difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.” — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The fact that you are not sure means that it is possible that there is another way someday. — 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 way to… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
