Richard Feynman Quotes

 

 
 I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there


The problem is not to find the best or most efficient method to proceed to a discovery, but to find any method at all.

 
Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.

 
The supreme task of a physicist is to arrive at those universal elementary laws from which the cosmos can be built up by pure deduction.


Science: We are not concerned with where a new idea comes from - the sole test of its validity is experiment.
 
We must be careful not to believe things simply because we want them to be true. No one can fool you as easily as you can fool yourself.
 


You have to have absolute confidence. Keep right on going, and nothing will happen.
 
Nature has a great simplicity and therefore a great beauty, 


 
There is no learning without having to pose a question.

Each part, of the whole of nature is always merely an approximation to the complete truth, or the complete truth so far as we know it.
 
We are trying to prove ourselves wrong as quickly as possible, because only in that way we find progress.
 
“I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.”
 
Words can be meaningless. If they are used in such a way that no sharp conclusions can be drawn.


In physics the truth is rarely perfectly clear, and that is certainly universally the case in human affairs.

 



 

 
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.
