He advocates for intellectual humility, stating that not knowing everything is not frightening but rather a natural state of being in a mysterious universe. This perspective encourages curiosity and acceptance of uncertainty as fundamental aspects of scientific inquiry.

Feynman on uncertainty: "I have approximate answers. I'm not absolutely sure of anything."Añadido:
I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things. But I'm not absolutely sure of anything, and there are many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here.

But I don't have to know an answer. I don't have I don't feel frightened by not knowing things.
By being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn't frighten me.
