Louis Pasteur
There is no such thing as applied science, only the application of pure science.
Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur
Life comes only from life.
Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur
In matters of observation chance favors only the prepared mind. (not literal translation) - Dan's les champs de observation le hasard ne favorise que les esprits prepares.
Louis Pasteur
The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creator. Science brings men nearer to God.
Louis Pasteur
Nothing is lost and nothing is created in the operations of art as those of nature.
Louis Pasteur
