We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
If I could explain it to the average person, it wouldn't have been worth the Nobel Prize.

I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool.

Richard P. Feynman
Poets say science takes away from the beauty of the stars - mere globs of gas atoms. I, too, can see the stars on a desert night, and feel them. But do I see less or more?
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
The idea is to try to give all the information to help others to judge the value of your contribution; not just the information that leads to judgment in one particular direction or another.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
There is a computer disease that anybody who works with computers knows about. It's a very serious disease and it interferes completely with the work. The trouble with computers is that you 'play' with them!

Richard P. Feynman
Scientific views end in awe and mystery, lost at the edge in uncertainty, but they appear to be so deep and so impressive that the theory that it is all arranged as a stage for God to watch man's struggle for good and evil seems inadequate.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
It is in the admission of ignorance and the admission of uncertainty that there is a hope for the continuous motion of human beings in some direction that doesn't get confined, permanently blocked, as it has so many times before in various periods in the history of man.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so that each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Once I get on a puzzle, I can't get off.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I got a fancy reputation. During high school, every puzzle that was known to man must have come to me. Every damn, crazy conundrum that people had invented, I knew.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I don't know what's the matter with people: they don't learn by understanding; they learn by some other way - by rote, or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
People often think I'm a faker, but I'm usually honest, in a certain way - in such a way that often nobody believes me!
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
First figure out why you want the students to learn the subject and what you want them to know, and the method will result more or less by common sense.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I want to marry Arline because I love her - which means I want to take care of her. That is all there is to it. I want to take care of her. I am anxious for the responsibilities and uncertainties of taking care of the girl I love.

Richard P. Feynman
What one fool can understand, another can.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
People are always asking for the latest developments in the unification of this theory with that theory, and they don't give us a chance to tell them anything about one of the theories that we know pretty well. They always want to know things that we don't know.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Physics has a history of synthesizing many phenomena into a few theories.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Gravitation is, so far, not understandable in terms of other phenomena.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Working out another system to replace Newton's laws took a long time because phenomena at the atomic level were quite strange. One had to lose one's common sense in order to perceive what was happening at the atomic level.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
Because the theory of quantum mechanics could explain all of chemistry and the various properties of substances, it was a tremendous success. But still there was the problem of the interaction of light and matter.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I've always been very one-sided about science, and when I was younger, I concentrated almost all my effort on it.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
The original reason to start the project, which was that the Germans were a danger, started me off on a process of action, which was to try to develop this first system at Princeton and then at Los Alamos, to try to make the bomb work.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I don't understand what it's all about or what's worth what, but if the people in the Swedish Academy decide that x, y or z wins the Nobel Prize, then so be it.
Written by
Richard P. Feynman
I don't believe in honors - it bothers me. Honors bother: honors is epaulettes; honors is uniforms. My papa brought me up this way.
