"The rewards of science are the real rewards."

"I was able to do the work that I wanted to do, and that is what counts."

"Women are not protected by chivalry; they are protected by the law."

"The most important thing is to enjoy what you are doing."

"The best part of living is knowing you survived."

"The world needs heroes."

"Life is too short to live poorly."

"I'd rather be an optimist and be wrong than a pessimist and be right"
