  • hello man

  • he's a brilliant man....but only so because he keeps asking why. He's not content at stopping at any point but the end, if there is one. Anyone can be him. Just need to keep asking why to keep peeling the layers of the onion.

  • I really want a son...but my lessons and explanations would be: "look bird! it's called a bird and but it's not a bird and ummm...go to bed!"

  • Defininately reading an encyclopedia to my children.

  • OH MY GOD... he KNEW that the BIRD IS THE WORD!!!!

  • @EzraGoldstein

    No Ezra, his father unlike most of us didnt learn things by rote, he learned, if he could, what was really going on behind the schoolbook explanations. Often our teachers themselves dont understand properly the things they teach us and just give us these rote explanations. if you're ever lucky enough to find a book that explains somthing the way Feynmans father did, hang on to that book forever.

  • Wow!!!! I so love this man!!!
