Science is a way of trying not to fool yourself.
More Quotes from Richard Phillips Feynman:
We have a habit in writing articles published in scientific journals to make the work as finished as possible, to cover up all the tracks, to not worry about the blind alleys or describe how you had the wrong idea first, and so on. So there isn't any place to publish, in a dignified manner, what you actually did in order to get to do the work.Richard Phillips Feynman

What I am going to tell you about is what we teach our physics students in the third or fourth year of graduate school ...
