If you don't like it, go somewhere else, to another universe where the rules are simpler. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The present situation in physics is as if we know chess, but we don't know one or two rules. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The Quantum Universe has a quotation from me in every chapter - but it's a damn good book anyway. — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
The universe is very large, and its boundaries are not known very well, but it is still possible to define some kind… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
A poet once said, "The whole universe is in a glass of wine." We will probably never know in what sense he… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share Image
Our poets do not write about it; our artists do not try to portray this remarkable thing. I don't know why. Is… — 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 at their table and sat down. She turned to me and said, "Oh! You're one of the Nobel-Prize-winners. In what field did you do your work?" "In physics," I said. "Oh. Well, nobody knows anything about… — Richard P. Feynman Copy Share
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
