  1. Richard P. Feynman _ The Feynman Lectures on

    It is probably better to realize that the probability concept is in a sense subjective, that it is always based on uncertain knowledge, and that its quantitative evaluation is subject to change as we obtain more information.

  2. Richard P. Feynman _ The Feynman Lectures on

    Mathematics is not a science from our point of view, in the sense that it is not a natural science. The test of its validity is not experiment.

  3. Richard P. Feynman _ The Feynman Lectures on

    No phenomenon directly involving a frequency has yet been detected above approximately 10^12 cycles per second. We only deduce the higher frequencies from the energy of the particles, by a rule which assumes that the particle-wave idea of quantum mechanics is valid.

  4. Richard P. Feynman _ The Feynman Lectures on

    there is a physical problem that is common to many fields, that is very old, and that has not been solved. It is not the problem of finding new fundamental particles, but something left over from a long time ago-over a hundred years. Nobody in physics has really been able to analyze it mathematically satisfactorily in spite of its importance to the sister sciences. It is the analysis of circulating or turbulent fluids.

  5. Richard P. Feynman _ The Feynman Lectures on

    Philosophers have said before that one of the fundamental requisites of science is that whenever you set up the same conditions, the same thing must happen. This is simply not true, it is not a fundamental condition of science.

    psychoanalysis is not a science: it is at best a medical process, and perhaps even more like witch-doctoring.
