Quote

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.

Image
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
Image
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
Image
Posterity will one day laugh at the foolishness of modern materialistic philosophers.
Louis Pasteur
Image
If science has no country, the scientist should have one, and ascribe to it the influence which his works may have in this world.
Louis Pasteur
Image
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

Science brings men nearer to God.

Did you ever observe to whom the accidents happen? Chance favors only the prepared mind.
Louis Pasteur
Image
After death, life reappears in a different form and with different laws. It is inscribed in the laws of the permanence of life on the surface of the earth and everything that has been a plant and an animal will be destroyed and transformed into a gaseous, volatile and mineral substance.
Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur
Image
Chance favours the trained mind.
Louis Pasteur
Image
In good philosophy, the word cause ought to be reserved to the single Divine impulse that has formed the universe.
Louis Pasteur
Image
Whether our efforts are, or not, favored by life, let us be able to say, when we come near to the great goal, I have done what I could.
Louis Pasteur
Image
To bring one's self to believe in a truth that has just dawned upon one is the first step towards progress to persuade others is the second.
Louis Pasteur
Image
Never will the doctrine of spontaneous generation recover from the mortal blow struck by this simple experiment.
Louis Pasteur
Image
To know how to wonder and question is the first step of the mind toward discovery.
Louis Pasteur
Image
I give them experiments and they respond with speeches.
Louis Pasteur
Image
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
Image
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

Change only favours minds that are diligently looking and preparing for discovery.
