The lecture I referred to, which was deliberately not quoted by the troll, 
Feynman concludes with this:

  “To summarize, I would use the words of Jeans, who said that, the Great 
   Architect seems to be a mathematician. And for you who don't know 
   mathematics, it's really quite difficult to get a real feeling across for 
   the beauty, or the deepest beauty, of nature. C. P. Snow talked about two 
   cultures. I really think that those two cultures are people who do and 
   people who do not-- people who have had and people who have not had this 
   experience of understanding mathematics well enough to appreciate nature 
   once.

   It's too bad that it has to be mathematics and that mathematics for some 
   people is hard. It gets reputed – I don't know if it's true – that when 
   one of the kings was trying to learn geometry from Euclid, he complained 
   that it was difficult. And Euclid said that there's no royal road to 
   geometry.

   And there's no royal road. We cannot, as people who have looked at these 
   things, the physicists, cannot convert this thing to any other language. 
   You have, if you want to discuss nature, to learn about nature and to 
   appreciate nature. It's necessary to find out the language that she 
   speaks in.

   She offers her information only in one form. We are not so unhumble as to 
   demand that she change before we pay any attention. It seems to me that 
   it's like all the intellectual arguments that you could make would not in 
   any way, or very, very little, will communicate to deaf ears what music, 
   the experience of music, really is.

   And all the intellectual arguments in the world will not convince those 
   of the other culture, the philosophers who try to teach you by telling 
   you qualitatively about this thing. Me, who's trying to describe it to 
   you, but it's not getting across because it's impossible. We're talking 
   to deaf ears. And it's perhaps that the horizons are limited which 
   permits such people to imagine that the center of the universe of 
   interest is man. Thank you.”
