How long would Richard Feynman last on social media today?
"Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts." ~ Richard P. Feynman
"Don't pay attention to "authorities," think for yourself." ~ Richard P. Feynman
"If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part." ~ Richard P. Feynman
"It does not matter who you are, or how smart you are, or what title you have, or how many of you there are, and certainly not how many papers your side has published, if your prediction is wrong then your hypothesis is wrong. Period." ~ Richard P. Feynman
"We never are definitely right, we can only be sure we are wrong." ~ Richard P. Feynman
"Have no respect whatsoever for authority; forget who said it and instead look what he starts with, where he ends up, and ask yourself, "Is it reasonable?"" ~ Richard P. Feynman
"No government has the right to decide on the truth of scientific principles, nor to prescribe in any way the character of the questions investigated. Neither may a government determine the aesthetic value of artistic creations, nor limit the forms of literacy or artistic expression. Nor should it pronounce on the validity of economic, historic, religious, or philosophical doctrines. Instead it has a duty to its citizens to maintain the freedom, to let those citizens contribute to the further adventure and the development of the human race." ~ Richard P. Feynman
