The first principle is that you must not fool yourself — and you are the easiest person to fool.Richard Feynman
“I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.”
“I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.”
— RICHARD FEYNMAN
Theoretical physicist and Nobel laureate · 1918 – 1988
Richard Feynman was an American theoretical physicist who shared the 1965 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on quantum electrodynamics. A member of the Manhattan Project as a young man, he later became famous for his bongo-playing, safecracking and irreverent memoir Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! (1985). His Caltech lectures remain a classic of science teaching, and he famously exposed the O-ring failure behind the Challenger disaster.
