All RICHARD P. FEYNMAN Quotes about “Desire”

“The difficulty really is psychological and exists in the perpetual torment that results from your saying to yourself, "But how can it be like that?" which is a reflection of uncontrolled but utterly vain desire to see it in terms of something familiar. ... If you will simply admit that maybe [Nature] does behave like this, you will find her a delightful, entrancing thing. Do not keep saying to yourself, if you can possible avoid it, "But how can it be like that?" because you will get 'down the drain', into a blind alley from which nobody has escaped. Nobody knows how it can be like that.”
“I learned a lot of different things from different schools. MIT is a very good placeâ€¦. It has developed for itself a spirit, so that every member of the whole place thinks that itâ€™s the most wonderful place in the worldâ€”itâ€™s the center, somehow, of scientific and technological development in the United States, if not the world â€¦ and while you donâ€™t get a good sense of proportion there, you do get an excellent sense of being with it and in it, and having motivation and desire to keep on”
“No man is rich who is unsatisfied, but who wants nothing possess his heart's desire.”
