More quotes by 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
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
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
Do not let yourself be tainted with a barren skepticism.
Louis Pasteur
No, there is now no circumstance known in which it can be affirmed that microscopic beings came into the world without germs, without parents similar to themselves. Those who affirm it have been duped by illusions, by ill-conducted experiments, spoilt by errors that they either did not perceive or did not know how to avoid.
Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur
Outsidetheir laboratories, thephysicianand chemist are soldiers without arms on the field of battle.
Louis Pasteur
If it is a terrifying thought that life is at the mercy of the multiplication of these minute bodies [microbes], it is a consoling hope that Science will not always remain powerless before such enemies.
Louis Pasteur
Intuition is given only to him who has undergone long preparation to receive it.
Louis Pasteur
I give them experiments and they respond with speeches.
Louis Pasteur
Live in the serene peace of laboratories and libraries
Louis Pasteur
The universe is asymmetric and I am persuaded that life, as it is known to us, is a direct result of the asymmetry of the universe or of its indirect consequences. The universe is asymmetric.
Louis Pasteur
