Professor Richard Feynman explained about physics and mathematics in his lecture.

Richard Feynman once said in one of his lectures: "I don’t know anything, but I do know that everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough."

Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it. — Richard P. Feynman

Mathematics is based on logic. Therefore universe described by mathematics has to be logical. It cannot by counterintuitive as physicists claim.

A good joke was clipped away! Listen to it at The full lecture and the other messenger lectures can also be viewed at

Mathematics is indeed rooted in logic, providing a consistent framework for describing the universe. However, the universe being described by mathematics doesn't preclude it from being counterintuitive; it merely means our intuitions, evolved in a specific context, might not align with the broader, often abstract mathematical truths that govern reality.

Wow wish I had a professor like him haha

In a nutshell: imagination (the creative mind) is what the physicist needs to have.

I recall reading about Feynman's lectures and being fascinated by how he made complex math concepts accessible.

Always a joy to listen to. He once said, if you really know your subject you can explain it to an educated layperson who knows nothing about the subject. Useful maxim.

👉"Divide to better rule" seems to be applied everywhere. So they divided physics and math. Why? We could, of course, give lot of reasons but I'm not sure those reasons are really reasonable. Because the scientist really need both aspect completely nested and will have obviously problems if separated.😄
