All Science Is Either Physics Or Stamp

Every Good Laboratory Consists Of First Rate Men Working In Great Harmony To Insure The Progress Of Science; But Down At The End Of The Hall Is An Unsociable, Wrong-headed Fellow Working On Unprofitable Lines, And In His Hands Lies The Hope Of Discovery.

The Energy Produced By The Breaking Down Of The Atom Is A Very Poor Kind Of Thing. Anyone Who Expects A Source Of Power From The Transformation Of These Atoms Is Talking Moonshine.

From The Results So Far Obtained It Is Difficult To Avoid The Conclusion That The Long-range Atoms Arising From Collision Of Alpha Particles With Nitrogen Are Not Nitrogen Atoms But Probably Atoms Of Hydrogen, Or Atoms Of Mass 2. If This Be The Case, We Must Conclude That The Nitrogen Atom Is Disintegrated Under The Intense Forces Developed In A Close Collision With A Swift Alpha Particle, And That The Hydrogen Atom Which Is Liberated Formed A Constituent Part Of The Nitrogen Nucleus.

Gentlemen, Now You Will See That Now You See Nothing. And Why You See Nothing You Will See Presently.

That Which Is Not Measurable Is Not Science. That Which Is Not Physics Is Stamp Collecting.
