Who would set a limit to the mind of man? Who would dare assert that we know all there is to be known?
The world never leaves one in ignorance or in peace.
Scientific work will never stop, and it would be terrible if it did. If there were no more problems, you would put your hands in your pockets and your head on a pillow and would work no more. In science rest is stagnation, rest is death.
