Richard P. Feynman Quote

There was a Princess Somebody of Denmark sitting at a table with a number of people around her, and I saw an empty chair at their table and sat down.She turned to me and said, Oh! You're one of the Nobel-Prize-winners. In what field did you do your work?In physics, I said.Oh. Well, nobody knows anything about that, so I guess we can't talk about it.On the contrary, I answered. It's because somebody knows something about it that we can't talk about physics. It's the things that nobody knows anything about that we can discuss. We can talk about the weather; we can talk about social problems; we can talk about psychology; we can talk about international finance--gold transfers we can't talk about, because those are understood--so it's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!I don't know how they do it. There's a way of forming ice on the surface of the face, and she did it!
