If there’s a heaven, Richard D. Feynman is right up there with Mozart. Have you read some of his bio? He almost became an alcoholic in Brazil(Neuman WAS an alcoholic, to slow his brain DOWN from too high a speed). He practiced jumping down stairs backward because you’re not supposed to turn your back on the King when receiving the Nobel prize.

His chapter on bosons/fermions is most enlightening, how bose statistics is the QM basis for LOVE and fermi statistics is the basis for HATE(Pauli Exclusion Principle). Of all the physics I’ve studied, his Lectures are still a treasure trove, even though they are dated from the 1960s. Yes, Da Vinci was back, as Richard D. Feynman...
