There are lots of videos of his lectures and interviews on youtube. You should check 'em out.
- truth_sentinell 10y agoOh, I had googled him but didn't expect to be this guy. He actually did a lot of accomplishments. Definitely not a wasted life.
- bshimmin 10y agoI'm not sure any introduction to Feynman can be complete without this letter he wrote to his wife: http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/02/i-love-my-wife-my-wife-is-dead.html http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/02/i-love-my-wife-my-wife-... (Warning: you may end up with something, ahem, in your eye...)
- volkk 10y agooh man, the postscript. :(
- bshimmin 10y agoI've read that letter at least ten times. The last five or so times, I've patted myself on the back for not crying, until I get to the postscript and then... off I go again.
- J-dawg 10y agoThank you for this. I've never seen it before. I'm curious about how the letter was found after his death. Who decided to make it public? I'm glad I had the opportunity to read it, but I doubt it was ever intended to be released to the world.
- dredmorbius 10y agoThanks for looking after the ten thousand. https://xkcd.com/1053/ https://xkcd.com/1053/
