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
Computer science is not as old as physics; it lags by a couple of hundred years. However, this does not mean that… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
There are theoretical physicists who imagine, deduce, and guess at new laws, but do not experiment; and then there are experimental physicists… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
In fact the total amount that a physicist knows is very little. He has only to remember the rules to get him… — 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
Just as a poet often has license from the rules of grammar and pronunciation, we should like to ask for 'physicists' license… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Physicists like to think that all you have to do is say, these are the conditions, now what happens next? — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
I don't like honors. I'm appreciated for the work that I did, and for people who appreciate it, and I notice that… — 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
