While working on the invention of the incandescent lamp, Edison demonstrated real miracles of endurance - once he did not sleep for 45 hours in a row. Here is a fair quote about the science of A. F. Ioffe: "the Problem is solved not by someone who enjoys partial success, but by a researcher who achieves a full result."
How else did Edison show his insistence on scientific research? the scientist tried about six thousand different materials to find the optimal one for the filament. In the end, the persistent inventor decided on the most suitable - Japanese bamboo.
Louis Pasteur has the following quote about science: "The progress of science is determined by the work of its scientists and the value of their discoveries." Indeed, if a scientific achievement does not benefit humanity, it is completely pointless. Why is an invention necessary if it cannot be used to solve significant problems, cure sick people, or solve scientific problems? Unfortunately, in many Sciences, there are whole areas of research that do not solve any problems.
Of course, some may object that such spheres of human knowledge as philosophy and mathematics do not solve applied problems. They do not directly affect the real world - no square equation has yet helped the patient to recover from a deadly disease. However, with their help, the development of other Sciences becomes possible. Nils Abel said: "Mathematics is to the scientist what the scalpel is to the anatomist."
“Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.” Oscar Wilde
Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life. Marcus Aurelius
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom. Isaac Asimov
Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men. Martin Luther King, Jr.
To me there has never been a higher source of earthly honor or distinction than that connected with advances in science. Isaac Newton
The human brain is an incredible pattern-matching machine. Jeff Bezos
Each problem that I solved became a rule, which served afterwards to solve other problems. Rene Descartes
When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a room full of dukes. W. H. Auden
No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong. Albert Einstein
Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence.
Henry David Thoreau
It stands to the everlasting credit of science that by acting on the human mind it has overcome man's insecurity before himself and before nature.
Albert Einstein
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.” ― Albert Einstein
