Richard Feynman said this quote

“ Of course, I am interested, but I would not dare to talk about them. In talking about the impact of ideas in one field on ideas in another field, one is always apt to make a fool of oneself. In these days of specialization there are too few people who have such a deep understanding of two departments of our knowledge that they do not make fools of themselves in one or the other. ”

Physics isn't the most important thing. Love is.

~ Richard Feynman

All the time you're saying to yourself, 'I could do that, but I won't,' — which is just another way of saying that you can't.

~ Richard Feynman

I couldn't claim that I was smarter than sixty-five other guys--but the average of sixty-five other guys, certainly!

~ Richard Feynman

– and pompous fools drive me up the wall. Ordinary fools are alright; you can talk to them and try to help them out. But pompous fools – guys who are fools and covering it all over and impressing people as to how wonderful they are with all this hocus pocus – THAT, I CANNOT STAND! An ordinary fool isn’t a faker; an honest fool is all right. But a dishonest fool is terrible!

~ Richard Feynman
