My Experience In Childhood And Adolescence Of

At 100, I Have A Mind That Is Superior - Thanks To Experience - Than When I Was 20.

If I Had Not Been Discriminated Against Or Had Not Suffered Persecution, I Would Never Have Received The Nobel Prize.

At 20, I Realized That I Could Not Possibly Adjust To A Feminine Role As Conceived By My Father And Asked Him Permission To Engage In A Professional Career. In Eight Months I Filled My Gaps In Latin, Greek And Mathematics, Graduated From High School, And Entered Medical School In Turin.

It Is Imperfection - Not Perfection - That Is The End Result Of The Program Written Into That Formidably Complex Engine That Is The Human Brain, And Of The Influences Exerted Upon Us By The Environment And Whoever Takes Care Of Us During The Long Years Of Our Physical, Psychological And Intellectual Development.

I Should Thank Mussolini For Having Declared Me To Be Of An Inferior Race. This Led Me To The Joy Of Working, Not Any More Unfortunately, In University Institutes But In A Bedroom.
