„Nechtěl bych umírat dvakrát. Je to tak nudné.“

„Věda je hodně podobná sexu. Někdy z ní vzejde něco užitečného, ale to není ten jediný důvod, proč ji děláme.“

„Ty knihy prostě nestály za nic. Byly špatné, byly odfláknuté. Snažily se být exaktní, ale používaly příkladů, které byly skoro správné, ale vždycky na nich byly nějaké mouchy. Definice nebyly přesné. Všechno bylo trochu mnohoznačné – autoři nebyli dost chytří na to, aby chápali, co „přesnost“ znamená. Jen ji předstírali. Vykládali něco, čemu nerozuměli a co bylo v dané chvíli dítěti úplně k ničemu.“

Psal to někdo, kdo pořádně nevěděl, o čem mluví, takže to bylo vždycky trochu špatně! A jak dobře učit podle knížek napsanými lidmi, kteří pořádně nerozumějí tomu, o čem mluví, to nedovedu pochopit. Nevím proč, ale ty knížky byly mizerné; MIZERNÉ PO VŠECH STRÁNKÁCH! Něco vypadalo na první pohled dobře, a pak mě z toho jímal děs. A takhle to vypadalo se všemi těmi knihami. Vykládaly o věcech, které byly neužitečné, zmatené a matoucí, mnohoznačné a částečně nesprávné.
Dílo, To nemyslíte vážně, pane Feynmane!

Richard Feynman: Citáty anglicky

“Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers of the preceding generation.”

address " What is Science? http://www.fotuva.org/feynman/what_is_science.html", presented at the fifteenth annual meeting of the National Science Teachers Association, in New York City (1966), published in The Physics Teacher, volume 7, issue 6 (1969), p. 313-320

“Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.”

“The theoretical broadening which comes from having many humanities subjects on the campus is offset by the general dopiness of the people who study these things.”

letter to Robert Bacher (6 April 1950), quoted in Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman (1992) by James Gleick, p. 278

“Do not keep saying to yourself, if you can possibly avoid it, "But how can it be like that?" because you will get "down the drain", into a blind alley from which nobody has yet escaped. Nobody knows how it can be like that.”

“Hell, if I could explain it to the average person, it wouldn't have been worth the Nobel prize.”

statement (c. 1965), quoted in " An irreverent best-seller by Nobel laureate Richard Feynman gives nerds a good name http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20091337,00.html", People Magazine (22 July 1985)

“I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring.”

last words (15 February 1988), according to James Gleick, in Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman (1992), p. 438

“For those who want some proof that physicists are human, the proof is in the idiocy of all the different units which they use for measuring energy.”

“This is the key of modern science and is the beginning of the true understanding of nature. This idea. That to look at the things, to record the details, and to hope that in the information thus obtained, may lie a clue to one or another of a possible theoretical interpretation.”

“One of the first interesting experiences I had in this project at Princeton was meeting great men. I had never met very many great men before. But there was an evaluation committee that had to try to help us along, and help us ultimately decide which way we were going to separate the uranium. This committee had men like Compton and Tolman and Smyth and Urey and Rabi and Oppenheimer on it. I would sit in because I understood the theory of how our process of separating isotopes worked, and so they'd ask me questions and talk about it. In these discussions one man would make a point. Then Compton, for example, would explain a different point of view. He would say it should be this way, and he was perfectly right. Another guy would say, well, maybe, but there's this other possibility we have to consider against it.

So everybody is disagreeing, all around the table. I am surprised and disturbed that Compton doesn't repeat and emphasize his point. Finally at the end, Tolman, who's the chairman, would say, "Well, having heard all these arguments, I guess it's true that Compton's argument is the best of all, and now we have to go ahead."

It was such a shock to me to see that a committee of men could present a whole lot of ideas, each one thinking of a new facet, while remembering what the other fella said, so that, at the end, the decision is made as to which idea was the best -- summing it all up -- without having to say it three times. These were very great men indeed.”
