“Every time a significant discovery is being made one sets in motion a tremendous activity in laboratories and industrial enterprises throughout the world.

“We must not forget that when radium was discovered no one knew that it would prove useful in hospitals. The work was one of pure science. And this is a proof that scientific work must not be considered from the point of view of the direct usefulness of it. It must be done for itself, for the beauty of science, and then there is always the chance that a scientific discovery may become like the radium a benefit for humanity.”

There are those who joyfully order their own lives so that they may serve the welfare of mankind.”
