无知永远不比知识更好。
制造链式反应堆的基本点是正确安排材料。
第一个反应堆的成功归功于美国生活方式的美德与意大利气质的愉快结合。
制造链式反应机器的基本点当然是确保每次裂变产生一定数量的中子，其中一些中子再次有效地产生裂变。
The fundamental point in fabricating a chain reacting machine is of course to see to it that each fission produces a certain number of neutrons and some of these neutrons will again produce fission.
It is no good to try to stop knowledge from going forward. Ignorance is never better than knowledge.

I remember my friend Johnny von Neumann used to say, 'with four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk.'
我记得我的朋友约翰尼·冯·诺伊曼曾经说过，“用四个参数我可以拟合一头大象，用五个我可以让它摆动它的鼻子。”
There are two possible outcomes: if the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery.
I hope it will not be long before we have a machine that will be able to solve all mathematical problems.
我希望不久之后我们就能有一台能够解决所有数学问题的机器。
Whatever Nature has in store for mankind, unpleasant as it may be, men must accept, for ignorance is never better than knowledge.
无论大自然为人类准备了什么，无论多么不愉快，人类都必须接受，因为无知从来都不比知识更好。
