More quotes by Louis Pasteur
My opinion - nay more, my conviction - is that, in the present state of science, as you rightly say, spontaneous generation is a chimera and it would be impossible for you to contradict me, for my experiments all stand forth to prove that spontaneous generation is a chimera.
Louis Pasteur
When I approach a child, he inspires in me two sentiments tenderness for what he is, and respect for what he may become.
Louis Pasteur
The only thing that can bring joy is work.
Louis Pasteur
Worship the spirit of criticism. If reduced to itself it is not an awakener of ideas or a stimulant to great things, but, without it, everything is fallible it always has the last word.
Louis Pasteur
Messieurs, c'est les microbes qui auront le dernier mot. (Gentlemen, it is the microbes who will have the last word.)
Louis Pasteur
There does not exist a category of science to which one can give the name applied science. There are sciences and the applications of science, bound together as the fruit of the tree which bears it.
Louis Pasteur
Time is the best appraiser of scientific work, and I am aware that an industrial discovery rarely produces all its fruit in the hands of its first inventor.
Louis Pasteur
The more I know, the more nearly is my faith that of the Breton peasant. Could I but know all I would have the faith of a Breton peasant woman.
Louis Pasteur
Posterity will one day laugh at the sublime foolishness of the modern materialistic philosophy. The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creator. I pray while I am engaged at my work in the laboratory.
Louis Pasteur
One does not ask of one who suffers: What is your country and what is your religion? One merely says: You suffer, that is enough for me.
Louis Pasteur
Science belongs to no one country.
Louis Pasteur
Chance favours the trained mind.
Louis Pasteur
God grant that by my persevering labours I may bring a little stone to the frail and ill-assured edifice of our knowledge of those deep mysteries of Life and Death where all our intellects have so lamentably failed.
Louis Pasteur
What did you do today to receive your instruction?
Louis Pasteur
Science brings men nearer to God.
Louis Pasteur
Science knows no country because it is the light that iluminates the world
Louis Pasteur
The artificial products do not have any molecular dissymmetry and I could not indicate the existence of a more profound separation between the products born under the influence of life and all the others.
Louis Pasteur
Do not put forward anything that you cannot prove by experimentation.
Louis Pasteur
Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world. Science is the highest personification of the nation because that nation will remain the first which carries the furthest the works of thought and intelligence.
Louis Pasteur
Change only favours minds that are diligently looking and preparing for discovery.
Louis Pasteur
