Law Quotes by Richard P. Feynman

So far as we know, all the fundamental laws of physics, like Newton's equations, are reversible.

— Richard P. Feynman

Phenomena complex-laws simple…Know what to leave out.

— Richard P. Feynman

I don't think that the laws can be considered to be like God because they have been figured out.

— Richard P. Feynman

But the real glory of science is that we can find a way of thinking such that the law is evident.

— Richard P. Feynman

... it is impossible to explain honestly the beauties of the laws of nature in a way that people can feel, without…

— Richard P. Feynman

Everything we know is only some kind of approximation, because we know that we do not know all the laws yet. Therefore,…

— Richard P. Feynman

We can deduce, often, from one part of physics like the law of gravitation, a principle which turns out to be much…

'Conservation' (the conservation law) means this ... that there is a number, which you can calculate, at one moment-and as nature undergoes…

— Richard P. Feynman

The principle of science, the definition, almost, is the following: The test of all knowledge is experiment. Experiment is the sole judge…
