For A Physicist Mathematics Is Not Just

The Glory Of Science Is To Imagine More Than We Can Prove.

Some Things Go Better Than You Expected, Other Things Go Worse, So I'm... I Think The Only Sensible Thing Is Just To Wait And See And What I'm Doing When I'm Writing Books - I'm Not Doing Science So Much Anymore.

In Desperation I Asked Fermi Whether He Was Not Impressed By The Agreement Between Our Calculated Numbers And His Measured Numbers. He Replied, "how Many Arbitrary Parameters Did You Use For Your Calculations?" I Thought For A Moment About Our Cut-off Procedures And Said, "four." He Said, "i Remember My Friend Johnny Von Neumann Used To Say, With Four Parameters I Can Fit An Elephant, And With Five I Can Make Him Wiggle His Trunk." With That, The Conversation Was Over.

I Am Acutely Aware Of The Fact That The Marriage Between Mathematics And Physics, Which Was So Enormously Fruitful In Past Centuries, Has Recently Ended In Divorce.
