I learned very early the difference between knowing the name... - Richard Feynman

"Philosophy of science is about as useful to scientists as ornithology is to birds."

"The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool."

"If you thought you were trying to find out more about it because you're gonna get an answer to some deep philosophical question...you may be wrong! It may be that you can't get an answer to that particular question by finding out more about the character of nature. But my interest in science is to simply find out about the world."

"Science is what we have learned about how to keep from fooling ourselves."

"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."
