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

The fact is the physical chemists never use their eyes and are most lamentably lacking in chemical culture. It is essential to cast out… — Henry Edward Armstrong Copy Share Image
Mendeleev, unlike the squeamish Meyer, had balls enough to predict that new elements would be dug up. Look harder, you chemists and geologists, he… — Sam Kean Copy Share Image

“The chemists are a strange class of mortals, impelled by an almost insane impulse to seek their pleasures amid smoke and vapour, soot and… — Johann Joachim Becher Copy Share Image
The chemists work with inaccurate and poor measuring services, but they employ very good materials. The physicists, on the other hand, use excellent methods… — Wolfgang Ostwald Copy Share Image
From early childhood, I was interested in understanding how the world worked, and assumed I would be some kind of physical scientist or chemist.… — Stephen LaBerge Copy Share Image
