“Corney & Barrow are proud to have the royal warrant, meaning that they provide the Palace with some of the greatest - and necessarily most expensive - wines from around the world. I am pleased to say that they also hold my own warrant, for providing exceptional wines at - surprisingly - modest prices.” WorldMy OwnProudWineAround The WorldExpensiveProvidingModestRoyalExceptionalPalacesWarrants Author:Simon Hoggart
“Think that you are part of a big construction called science and you are not just a chemist but you are scientist. Be modest but proud. Modest because you know you will not be able to solve other problems because your life is too short. But be proud because you are contributing to it. Some people will bring a small stone to the building and some people will bring a big one but nevertheless no one can take that stone away from you.” PeopleThinkingKnowsProblemBigsAbleLife IsBuildingProudStonesScientistSolveConstructionNeverthelessModestBe ProudToo ShortLife Is Too ShortContributingAway From YouChemist Author:Jean-Marie Lehn

“I'm afraid what we are building today will not have the same impact and sustainability of the architecture of a 100, 500 or 1,000 years ago. The buildings of those days were miracles. We don't perform such miracles today. So we should be a little more modest. For my part, I'll be glad to show one of my buildings one day to my grandchildren and say: I'm proud of that.” ShouldYearsLittlesShowsTodayBuildingProudOne DayYears AgoMiracleImpactArchitectureGladSustainabilityModestGrandchildrenMy Grandchildren Author:Zhang Xin
