If I say [electrons] behave like particles I give the wrong impression; also if I say they behave like waves. They behave… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The electron is a theory. But the theory is so good we can almost consider them real. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Thus we can get the correct answer for the probability of partial reflection by imagining (falsely) that all reflection comes from only… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The electron is a theory we use; it is so useful in understanding the way nature works that we can almost call… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
It is the fact that the electrons cannot all get on top of each other that makes tables and everything else solid. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
There is one simplification at least. Electrons behave ... in exactly the same way as photons; they are both screwy, but in… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
When a photon comes down, it interacts with electrons throughout the glass, not just on the surface. The photon and electrons do… — 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
![“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.” quote by Richard P.
