Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
I can, therefore I am.
Only the educated are free.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Who seeks shall find.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
This ceremony and the intellectual aura associated with the Nobel Prizes have grown from the wisdom of a practical chemist who wrote a remarkable will.
