Feynman, Richard (1918-1988) American theoretical physicist |
"It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are, - if it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong." |
|
Edison, Thomas (1847-1931) American inventor |
"To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk." |
|
Pascal, Blaise (1623-1662) French physicist |
"It is not certain that everything is uncertain." |
|
Dühem, Pierre (1861-1916) French physicist |
"A physical theory is not an explanation. It is a system of mathematical propositions, deduced from a small number of principles, which aim to represent as simply, as completely, and as exactly as possible a set of experimental laws." |

Archimedes (287 B.C.?-212 B.C.?) Greek mathematician |
"Give me a firm place to stand, and I will move the earth." |
