The drawing teacher has this problem of communicating how to draw by osmosis and not by instruction, while the physics teacher has the problem of always teaching techniques, rather than the spirit, of how to go about solving physical problems. - Richard P. Feynman 1 Share Now -
I thought one should have the attitude of 'What do you care what other people think!' - Richard P. Feynman 2 Share Now -
Until I began to learn to draw, I was never much interested in looking at art. - Richard P. Feynman 3 Share Now -
For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled. - Richard P. Feynman 4 Share Now -
Einstein's gravitational theory, which is said to be the greatest single achievement of theoretical physics, resulted in beautiful relations connecting gravitational phenomena with the geometry of space; this was an exciting idea. - Richard P. Feynman 5 Share Now -
I think that when we know that we actually do live in uncertainty, then we ought to admit it; it is of great value to realize that we do not know the answers to different questions. This attitude of mind - this attitude of uncertainty - is vital to the scientist, and it is this attitude of mind which the student must first acquire. - Richard P. Feynman 6 Share Now -
When I was a young man, Dirac was my hero. He made a breakthrough, a new method of doing physics. He had the courage to simply guess at the form of an equation, the equation we now call the Dirac equation, and to try to interpret it afterwards. - Richard P. Feynman 7 Share Now -
See that the imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man. - Richard P. Feynman 8 Share Now -
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. - Richard P. Feynman 9 Share Now -
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 10 Share Now -
