38. Even now, after 25 years of intensive research, we feel there is a great deal still to be done. We have made many discoveries. Pierre Curie in the suggestions, we have found in his notes and in thoughts he expressed to me has helped to guide us to them. But no one of us can do much. At each of us perhaps can catch some gleam of knowledge which modest and insufficient of itself may add to men’s dream of truth. It is by these small candles in our darkness that we see before us, little by little the dim outlines of that great plan that shapes the universe. And I’m among those who think that for this reason science has great beauty and with it’s great spiritual strength will in time cleanse this world of it’s evils, it’s ignorance, it’s powerty, diseases, wars and heartaches. Look for the clear ligh of truth, look for unknown new roads. Even when men’s sight is keener far then now divine wonder will never fail him. Every age has it’s own dreams, leave then dreams of yesterday. You take the torch of the knowledge and build the palace of a future.

40. About Living “You have to take living seriously, in such a way, to such extent, for instance, your hands tied behind you, your back to the wall, or wearing thick spectacles and white robe, in a laboratory, you must be willing to die for other people, even those whose faces you have never seen, although nobody has forcedr you to do this and although you know that living is the most beautiful and the most genuine thing” Nazim Hikmet, 1948
