science opportunity progress
If we will only allow that, as we progress, we remain unsure, we will leave opportunities for alternatives. Richard P. Feynman
science opportunity thinking
I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it is much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers that might be wrong. If we will only allow that, as we progress, we remain unsure, we will leave opportunities for alternatives. We will not become enthusiastic for the fact, the knowledge, the absolute truth of the day, but remain always uncertain … In order to make progress, one must leave the door to the unknown ajar. Richard P. Feynman

science progress trying
We are trying to prove ourselves wrong as quickly as possible, because only in that way can we find progress. Richard P. Feynman
science thinking doubt
Science is a way to teach how something gets to be known, what is not known, to what extent things are known (for nothing is known absolutely), how to handle doubt and uncertainty, what the rules of evidence are, how to think about things so that judgments can be made, how to distinguish truth from fraud, and from show. Richard P. Feynman
