A Book On The New Physics, If

If You Are Receptive And Humble, Mathematics Will Lead You By The Hand. Again And Again, When I Have Been At A Loss How To Proceed, I Have Just Had To Wait Until I Have Felt The Mathematics Led Me By The Hand. It Has Led Me Along An Unexpected Path, A Path Where New Vistas Open Up, A Path Leading To New Territory, Where One Can Set Up A Base Of Operations, From Which One Can Survey The Surroundings And Plan Future Progress.

A Great Deal Of My Work Is Just Playing With Equations And Seeing What They Give.

One Could Perhaps Describe The Situation By Saying That God Is A Mathematician Of A Very High Order, And He Used Very Advanced Mathematics In Constructing The Universe.

What Makes The Theory Of Relativity So Acceptable To Physicists In Spite Of Its Going Against The Principle Of Simplicity Is Its Great Mathematical Beauty. This Is A Quality Which Cannot Be Defined, Any More Than Beauty In Art Can Be Defined, But Which People Who Study Mathematics Usually Have No Difficulty In Appreciating.

Living Is Worthwhile If One Can Contribute In Some Small Way To This Endless Chain Of Progress.
