Sweden is the home of my ancestors, and I have reserved a special place in my heart for Sweden.
Carl David Anderson
The ideal student would be one who was not working for grades but was working because he was interested in the work and not trying to compete with fellow students.
Carl David Anderson
Measurements of the specific ionization of both the positive and negative particles, by counting the number of droplets per unit length along the tracks, showed the great majority of both the positive and negative particles to possess unit electric charge.
Carl David Anderson
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.
