We do not know what the rules of the game are; all we are allowed to do is to watch the playing.… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Every instrument that has been designed to be sensitive enough to detect weak light has always ended up discovering that the same… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Victory usually goes to those green enough to underestimate the monumental hurdles they are facing. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We scientists are clever — too clever — are you not satisfied? Is four square miles in one bomb not enough? Men… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
We're always, by the way, in fundamental physics, always trying to investigate those things in which we don't understand the conclusions. After… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Maybe that is why young people make success. They don't know enough. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The most important thing I found out from my father is that if you asked any question and pursued it deeply enough,… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
There is enough energy in a single cubic meter of space to boil all the oceans in the world. — 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
