Quote:Alan,
“Physics isn't the most important thing. Love is.” - Feynman
“A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.” - Nelson Mandela
“Whatever you do in life, surround yourself with smart people who'll argue with you.” - John Wooden
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." - Albert Einstein
“By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.” - Confucius
I did say "what about wisdom and love"?
Feynman had a deep profound love for his very sick dying wife, which he could only visit on rare occasions, due to his secret work at Los Alamos project.
He was however, a very charismatic man, if you compare him to the other dry scientists of the day such as the very- few- word man, Paul Dirac a British scientist (Who was Richards hero until he met him and try to engage in conversation)
Dirac first proposed the existence of anti-matter, which was later proved to be correct in an atom smasher.
This enigma of the matter/antimatter destruction should have occurred in our early universe but did not, according to the best science of the day, remains even one at this contemporary time, as one of the prime puzzles of the cosmos as to why it was created in the manner it was, instead of how science said it should have?
At the moment of the big bang, with equal amounts of matter and anti-matter existing, that should have come in contact and annihilated each other, leaving us in a vast dead gamma ray universe, rather than the beautiful one we now exist in. (I see the hand of God in this?)
This strange a- synchronism of the universe, with matter dominating, and the total absence of natural antimatter, was a real enigma, until Dirac came up with his idea that somewhere, somehow antimatter must exist.

Dirac was once asked by a news paper journalist, if he went to the movies? to which he replied "Yes"
When asked when? he said "In 1925 and 1940"?
Dirac quoted
"God used beautiful mathematics to create the universe"

I am not sure, but will check Albert Einstein (from my memory)
