Top 5 quotes from Marie Curie
"One never notices what has been done; one can only see what remains to be done."
"I was taught that the way of progress is neither swift nor easy."
"Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood."
"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. A well-organized society should assure to such workers the efficient means of accomplishing their task, in a life freed from material care and freely consecrated to research."
"Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas."
