unverified Richard Feynman

I don't know that he was saying good or bad...

"Religion is a culture of faith; science is a culture of doubt."

A couple others:

  • "The remark which I read somewhere, that science is all right as long as it doesn't attack religion, was the clue I needed to understand the problem. As long as it doesn't attack religion it need not be paid attention to and nobody has to learn anything. So it can be cut off from society except for its applications, and thus be isolated. And then we have this terrible struggle to try to explain things to people who have no reason to want to know. But if they want to defend their own point of view, they will have to learn what yours is a little bit. So I suggest, maybe correctly and perhaps wrongly, that we are too polite."
  • "What does it mean, to understand? ... I don't know."
