More quotes by Louis Pasteur
The Greeks understood the mysterious power of the below things. They are the ones who gave us one of the most beautiful words in our language, the word enthusiasm.
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
Do not put forward anything that you cannot prove by experimentation.
Louis Pasteur
Oh my goodness the mystery that has prompted my objective. My quality lies exclusively in my tirelessness.
Louis Pasteur
Every chemical substance, whether natural or artificial, falls into one of two major categories, according to the spatial characteristic of its form. The distinction is between those substances that have a plane of symmetry and those that do not. The former belong to the mineral, the latter to the living world.
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
The grandeur of the acts of men are measured by the inspiration from which they spring. Happy is he who bears a God within.
Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur
La fortuna juega a favor de una mente preparada
Louis Pasteur
These three things-work, will, success-fill human existences. Will opens the door to success, both brilliant and happy. Work passes these doors, and at the end of the journey success comes in to crown one's efforts.
Louis Pasteur
Live in the serene peace of laboratories and libraries
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
The more I study nature, the more I stand amazed at the work of the Creator. Science brings men nearer to God.
Louis Pasteur
Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world.
Louis Pasteur
It is not the germs we need worry about. It is our inner terrain.
Louis Pasteur
Worship the spirit of criticism.
Louis Pasteur
Never will the doctrine of spontaneous generation recover from the mortal blow struck by this simple experiment.
Louis Pasteur
Blessed is he who carries within himself a God, an ideal, and obeys it.
Louis Pasteur
Science brings men nearer to God.
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.
