Richard Feynman on the meaning of life ✍️

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

The scientist has a lot of experience with ignorance and doubt and uncertainty, and this experience is of very great importance, I think.

When a scientist doesn't know the answer to a problem, he is ignorant. When he has a hunch as to what the result is, he is uncertain. And when he is pretty darn sure of what the result is going to be, he is in some doubt. We have found it of paramount importance that in order to progress we must recognize our ignorance and leave room for doubt. Scientific knowledge is a body of statements of varying degrees of certainty — some most unsure, some nearly sure, but none absolutely certain.

“I believe this will encourage immunologists and physicians to apply T regulatory cells to treat various immunological diseases.”

This year’s Nobel Prize laureate, Shimon Sakaguchi, discovered a new class of T cells that protect the body from autoimmune diseases.

Just after the prize announcement we spoke to him about the fundamental research question that kept him dedicated to the field long after many others gave up.

Listen to our interview with the happy and surprised laureate:

You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. Fall in love with some activity and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about and it doesn't matter.
