Richard 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!

The most important thing is to not stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence.

We are trying to understand nature. We are not trying to understand how to make nature obey us.

The only way to have a new idea is to have lots of ideas.

I find that a great many people don't understand what a theory is. They think that a theory is just a guess.

The game is to try to figure out how the world works.

I love you, and I want to be with you. I want to play with you, and I want to talk with you, and I want to do things with you. I want to sleep with you, and I want to wake up with you. I want to cry with you, and I want to laugh with you. I want to live with you, and I want to die with you.

I am an explorer, not a scientist. I am interested in finding out about the world, and I am not interested in proving anything.

I don't have to be a scientist. I don't have to be a professor. I don't have to be anything. I can just be myself.

I find that I am much more interested in the things that I don't understand than in the things that I do understand.

I am not a genius. I am just a very curious person.

I would rather have a mind that is open to all possibilities than a mind that is closed to all possibilities.

The only way to learn is to do.

I don't believe in anything that I can't prove.

I am not afraid of anything. I am not afraid of death. I am not afraid of life. I am not afraid of anything.

I think that the most important thing is to be honest with yourself.

I am not interested in being famous. I am interested in being happy.

I don't care what other people think of me. I only care what I think of myself.

I am not a religious person. I am a spiritual person.

I think that the most important thing is to be kind to other people.
