Great teachers know they have to cultivate curiosity, passion and creativity in their students.

To do any important work in physics a very good mathematical ability and aptitude are required. Some work in applications can be done without this, but it will not be very inspired.

You cannot understand the physical world in any deep or satisfying way without using mathematical reasoning with facility.
Richard Feynman

Clive Davis
