I am one of those who think like Nobel, that humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.

Sometimes, when I see my granddaughters make small discoveries of their own, I wish I were a child.

One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.

If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been owing more to patient attention, than to any other talent.
