More quotes by Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
If I go out into nature, into the unknown, to the fringes of knowledge, everything seems mixed up and contradictory, illogical, and incoherent. This is what research does it smooths out contradictions and makes things simple, logical, and coherent.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
A substance that makes you ill if you don't eat it.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Senescent judges show how patriotic they are by passing out hard sentences for tearing up a draft card or following one's conscience according to the principles established by our country at the Nuremburg trials.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
[A vitamin is] a substance you get sick from if you don't eat it.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
We are all but recent leaves on the same old tree of life and if this life has adapted itself to new functions and conditions, it uses the same old basic principles over and over again. There is no real difference between the grass and the man who mows it.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Research is not a systematic occupation but an intuitive artistic vocation.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Nature is one. It is not divided into physics, chemistry, quantum mechanics.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
If structure does not tell us anything about function, it means that we have not looked at it correctly.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Research is four things: brains with which to think, eyes with which to see, machines with which to measure and, fourth, money.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Whatever a man does he must do first in his mind.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
I am the son of a small and far-away nation and the other laureates have all come from different countries from all over the world and we all were equally received here with signs of sympathy.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Through the ages, man's main concern was life after death. Today, for the first time, we find we must ask questions about whether there will be life before death.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
A living cell requires energy not only for all its functions, but also for the maintenance of its structure.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
This paper of yours is so lightly written that you must have sweated terribly.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
The source of this energy is the sun's radiation.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Think boldly. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Don't miss small details, keep your eyes open and be modest in everything except your aims.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
If any student comes to me and says he wants to be useful to mankind and go into research to alleviate human suffering, I advise him to go into charity instead. Research wants real egotists who seek their own pleasure and satisfaction, but find it in solving the puzzles of nature.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
