' and , as you gradually advance, 'What have I done for my country?' until the time comes when you may have the immense happiness of thinking that you have contributed in some way to the progress and to the good of humanity. But, whether our efforts are or not favoured by life, let us be able to say, when we come near the great goal, ' I have done what I could” - Louis Pasteur

GREAT QUOTES OF THOMAS EDISON

** Never get discouraged if you fail. Learn from it. Keep trying.

** Learn with both your head and hands.

** Not everything of value in life comes from books - experience the world.

** Never stop learning. Read the entire panorama of literature.

2. "Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless."

Seeming to do is not doing."

GREAT QUOTES OF COPERNICUS

I am aware that a philosopher's ideas are not subject to the judgment of ordinary persons, because it is his endeavour to seek the truth in all things, to the extent permitted to human reason by God. - Nicolaus Copernicus

Moreover, since the sun remains stationary, whatever appears as a motion of the sun is really due rather to the motion of the earth. - Nicolaus Copernicus

Mathematics is written for mathematicians. - Nicolaus Copernicus

The earth together with its surrounding waters must in fact have such a shape as its shadow reveals, for it eclipses the moon with the arc of a perfect circle. - Nicolaus Copernicus

Those things which I am saying now may be obscure, yet they will be made clearer in their proper place. - Nicolaus Copernicus

For I am not so enamoured of my own opinions that I disregard what others may think of them. - Nicolaus Copernicus

At rest, however, in the middle of everything is the sun. - Nicolaus Copernicus

Finally we shall place the Sun himself at the center of the Universe. - Nicolaus Copernicus

Of all things visible, the highest is the heaven of the fixed stars. - Nicolaus Copernicus

To know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge. - Nicolaus Copernicus

GREAT QUOTES OF GALILEO

“I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn't learn something from him.” - Galileo Galilei

“I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.” - Galileo Galilei

“You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself.” - Galileo

“In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual.” - Galileo Galilei

“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” - Galileo

“Philosophy [nature] is written in that great book which ever is before our eyes -- I mean the universe -- but we cannot understand it if we do not first learn the language and grasp the symbols in which it is written. The book is written in mathematical language, and the symbols are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without whose help it is impossible to comprehend a single word of it; without which one wanders in vain through a dark labyrinth.” - Galileo

“Passion is the genesis of genius.” - Galileo Galilei

“The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent on it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.” - Galileo Galilei

“Sì perché l'autorità dell'opinione di mille nelle scienze non val per una scintilla di ragione di un solo, sì perché le presenti osservazioni spogliano d'autorità i decreti de' passati scrittori, i quali se vedute l'avessero, avrebbono diversamente determinato.

For in the sciences the authority of thousands of opinions is not worth as much as one tiny spark of reason in an individual man. Besides, the modern observations deprive all former writers of any authority, since if they had seen what we see, they would have judged as we judge.” - Galileo Galilei

“It is a beautiful and delightful sight to behold the body of the Moon.” - Galileo Galilei

“Wine is sunlight, held together by water.” - Galileo Galilei
