A humble scientist is a good scientist.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think the main lesson that I have learned is that a good scientist is a humble scientist who is open-minded to listen to other scientists when they discover something.
I think it's important for scientists to be a bit less arrogant, a bit more humble, recognising we are capable of making mistakes and being fallacious - which is increasingly serious in a society where our work may have unpredictable consequences.
The best scientists that I've met are those that are humanists and scientists at the same time.
I always felt that a scientist owes the world only one thing, and that is the truth as he sees it.
If I may take the liberty to speak for science at least, today his name and his prizes are without a peer in the world. He not only elevates science but he influences it as well.
I happen to love science... Scientists are all slightly mad. There is truth in the stereotype of the mad scientist. They are mad with curiosity.
A scientist should be the happiest of men.
A scientist in his laboratory is not a mere technician: he is also a child confronting natural phenomena that impress him as though they were fairy tales.
I am not a scientist. I am, rather, an impresario of scientists.
The man of science is a poor philosopher.
