Marie Curie quotes

French physicist, twice winner of the Nobel Prize, 1867-1934


Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

 

In science, we must be interested in things, not in persons.

 

I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done.

 

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.

 

After all, science is essentially international, and it is only through lack of the historical sense that national qualities have been attributed to it.

 

All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.

 

Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas.

 

Humanity needs practical men, who get the most out of their work, and, without forgetting the general good, safeguard their own interests. But humanity also needs dreamers, for whom the disinterested development of an enterprise is so captivating that it becomes impossible for them to devote their care to their own material profit.

 

I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale.

 

I have frequently been questioned, especially by women, of how I could reconcile family life with a scientific career. Well, it has not been easy.
