Eistein and Feynman were jealous of you tommy because you won the Nobel Prize for Physics, Chemstry and Peace, thereby putting those losers to shame.

This means that you don't dance for the sake of dancing which will make you sad once you only have your body but nobody around that cares about your dancing.

      According to Dale Carnegie and Les Giblin, human beings have three basic social appetites; to be _accepted, approved of,_ and _appreciated_ - not necessarily for their accomplishments, but for who they are as people. This isn't wrong: doing it to ingratiate or manipulate others, or simply to have a 'self-congratulation society' of the sort Feynman describes, is at best valueless and at worst stifling to progress.
      The original purpose of prizes and boards such as the Nobel, Pulitzer, Hugo, Oscar, etc. is to formally recognize and communicate high achievement to the wider world. The Age of Information is changing all that.

      *Listen* , People with maturity level of perelman and feynman don't do things to show off, okay! E.g. declining awards so that they would get more attention. So *Kid*
      When you will reach at that stage, then u will understand.
      Moreover, perelman was fed up with mathematical society because some mathematicians tried to steal his work. Therefore he made up his mind to break up all bonds with mathematical society, resulting in non-acceptance of award.
      Similarly, after becoming part of Manhattan project (making of Atomic bomb), feynman had a feel of guilt inside. He said in this interview that he joined the project as a mindset of saving the humanity but he achieved opposite. So he made up a rule that he will never try to do anything big in life again. He will just enjoy doing physics.
      So he didn't have any interest in accepting the prize which could make him think that he did something big.

    Productiveness is the key for a human being to feel happiness and consistency. Elitism is a counterproductive, parasitic phenomenon - this is what bothered Mr.Feynman. In fact, every fine man ought to feel that.

    I think he's incredible, he strikes me as a completely authentic and down to earth person. As they say "the most extraordinary person is the most ordinary person", and he's living proof. It's amazing to just know that people like him have ever lived.

      Yes.. I've been thinking about that.
      I find it intriguing that we can understand so effortlessly the ties being made, so in some sense we must be able to connect ideas of the same sort together in our brain.
      But interestingly we can't do that on our own. If I were to lay my arguments on that question I'd end up with some loosely coherent speech that really wouldn't have captured my ideas.

    Yuan Lee said something similar-- after he got the Nobel, he wanted to send it back, because being a celebrity-chemist was interfering with his work as a chemist.
    But there's one advantage of the Nobel prize if you work at UC Berkeley: parking is very difficult there, and they have special parking places which only Nobel Laureates are allowed to use. When you win, the university sends you a special sticker to put on your car to let the parking-enforcement people know. So if you have a Nobel prize, you don't waste time looking for a parking space. Lee said that was the main reason he didn't send his Nobel prize back.
