Scientist Believe In Things, Not In Person

It Is My Earnest Desire That Some Of You Should Carry On This Scientific Work And Keep For Your Ambition The Determination To Make A Permanent Contribution To Science.

After All, Science Is Essentially International, And It Is Only Through Lack Of The Historical Sense That National Qualities Have Been Attributed To It.

I Have No Dress Except The One I Wear Every Day. If You Are Going To Be Kind Enough To Give Me One, Please Let It Be Practical And Dark So That I Can Put It On Afterwards To Go To The Laboratory.

I Am Among Those Who Think That Science Has Great Beauty. A Scientist In His Laboratory Is Not Only A Technician: He Is Also A Child Placed Before Natural Phenomena Which Impress Him Like A Fairy Tale. We Should Not Allow It To Be Believed That All Scientific Progress Can Be Reduced To Mechanisms, Machines, Gearings, Even Though Such Machinery Has Its Own Beauty.

I Was Taught That The Way Of Progress Was Neither Swift Nor Easy.
