we as a society need to recognize Richard Feynman more. he was the thing I aspire to be most: too smart to be killed. Nothing could touch that man. He joined the Manhattan Project and promptly broke into every safe in Los Alamos to read all the secret documents just for funsies. The government’s response? “Just don’t let him in your office”. That was the solution. Stop him at the door so he can’t steal military secrets out of boredom. He also constantly messed with the official censors by writing to his relatives in code and filling his mail with powdered Pepto-Bismol. While lecturing in Brazil, he joined a samba band and performed in Carnaval. Just because. He won a Nobel Prize after messing around throwing plates in the air and deciding to figure out the mechanics behind a spinning plate being tossed across a room. I love Richard Feynman so much.
