Quote by Carlo Rubbia

"Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge."

"The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy."

"Physics is really nothing more than a search for ultimate simplicity, but so far all we have is a kind of elegant messiness."

"In physics, you don't have to go around making trouble for yourself—nature does it for you."

"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"
