If you understand more advanced mathematics then read the Feynman lectures, but read between the lines as you do so. Those lectures contain a great deal of what is known about physics when read in a sophisticated manner.

 

After that you are ready for advanced books on specialized topics in physics. There are a great many of those. A very good set are the several volumes on theoretical physics by Landau and Lifshitz. Goldstein's Classical Mechanics and Jackson's Classical Electrodynamics are well-known standard texts. Thirring has a nice series on mathematical physics. Gravitation by Misner, Thorne and Wheeler is an excellent treatment of general relativity. Quantum Field Theory in a Nutshell by Zee is well regarded.

 

Those should keep you occupied for at least several weeks. :rolleyes:
