- Allan McLeod Cormack98◆ I had no specific bent toward science until my grandfather died of stomach cancer. I decided that nobody should suffer that much.
- Gertrude B. Elion98◆ The atom can't be seen, yet its existence can be proved. And it is simple to prove that it can't ever be seen. It has to be studied by indirect evidence — and the technical difficulty has been compared to asking a man who has never seen a piano to describe a piano from the sound it would make falling downstairs in the dark.
- Carl David Anderson98◆ Reality is complicated. There is no justification for all of the hasty conclusions.
- Hideki Yukawa98◆ I have no doubt that we will be successful in harnessing the sun's energy. ... If sunbeams were weapons of war, we would have had solar energy centuries ago.
