More quotes by Louis Pasteur
Worship the spirit of criticism.
Louis Pasteur
Blessed is he who carries within himself a God, an ideal, and obeys it.
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
Do not promote what you can't explain, simplify, and prove early.
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
Messieurs, c'est les microbes qui auront le dernier mot. (Gentlemen, it is the microbes who will have the last word.)
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
Science proceeds by successive answers to questions more and more subtle, coming nearer and nearer to the very essence of phenomena.
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
You have not succeeded in your experiments, that is all there is to it.
Louis Pasteur
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
There is no such thing as applied science, only the application of pure science.
Louis Pasteur
Do not let yourself be tainted with a barren skepticism.
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
Posterity will one day laugh at the foolishness of modern materialistic philosophers.
Louis Pasteur
It is not the germs we need worry about. It is our inner terrain.
Louis Pasteur
Science knows no country because it is the light that iluminates the world
Louis Pasteur
To know how to wonder and question is the first step of the mind toward discovery.
Louis Pasteur
Luck favors the mind that is prepared.
Louis Pasteur
