Results from Poor Man's College:

Every scientific fulfillment raises new questions; it asks to be surpassed and outdated.: Max Weber
Penicillin was indeed the product of accidental discovery, but the discovery was made, and the knowledge developed, because certain scientists had definite goals in mind. "Chance," Pastuer wrote, "favors only the prepared mind." The mind must be prepared not only by scientific training and technological know-how, but also by the awareness of social needs.: Saturday Review
All science is concerned with the relationship of cause and effect. Each scientific discovery increases man's ability to predict the consequences of his actions and thus his ability to control future events.: Lawrence J. Peters
Whereas in art nothing worth doing can be done without genius, in science even a very moderate capacity can contribute to a supreme achievement.: Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
Science does not know its debt to imagination. Goethe did not believe that a great naturalist could exist without this faculty.: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
Concern for man himself and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavor. Never forget this in the midst of your diagrams and equations.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.: Epicurus (341 BC - 270 BC)
If the world were so organized that everything has to be fair, no living creature could survive for a day. The birds would be forbidden to eat worms, and everyone's self-interest would have to be served.: Author Unknown
There are two great rules of life, the one general and the other particular. The first is that everyone can in the end, get what he wants, if he only tries. That is the general rule. The particular rule is that every individual is, more or less, an exception to the rule.: Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902)
