Richard Feynman

Today would have been the great Richard Feynman's 101st birthday.

To honor him you may want to go out and buy his book Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman (one of 10 books Tim Ferriss recommends for every entrepreneur).

Here's a nice appreciation of Feynman written in celebration for what would have been his 100th birthday last year.

If you want to feel a tug at your heartstrings - read Feynman's letter to his wife 16 months after her passing. The last line is pure Feynman.

What "Impossible!" meant to Feynman. This article is well worth your time.

Finally, below please find a short film on Feynman and Curiosity. Reid Gower, the filmmaker, also has one on Feynman and Beauty. As well as one on Feynman and Honors. Bravo Mr. Gower - nicely done.

  2. I just ordered his second book "What DO You Care What Other People Think?" I'll let you know who good it is.
