While we were quoting Feynman, here are a few others...

“We are trying to prove ourselves wrong as quickly as possible, because only in that way can we find progress.”

“Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts”

“If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.”

and my favorite

“If I could explain it to the average person, I wouldn't have been worth the Nobel Prize.”
