Ernest Solvay quotes

“There are no limits to what science can explore. The man of the future will be dedicated to individualism. To be in contact with scientists, to become in a small way a scientist myself if possible, perhaps to cast new light on physical phenomena, to be able to uncover what is real and definitive, was my life's great dream.”
-- Ernest Solvay

“A loud noise will get your fight-or-flight response going. This, over the years, can cause real cardiovascular damage.”

“Of course, the advantage is that, being in this business, you get to learn a lot, experience a lot of new things, and you can become real successful. The disadvantage is, of course the negative media. People may try to manipulate you and control you, and those are the things you have to avoid. But if you maintain strong family values and you believe in God, you can be successful. So, it's been tough, but I've gotten through it because I stuck with my family and my deep belief in God.”

“I want to be a real artist to consumers. I want to be the real thing for them.”

“He (Jeremy Clarkson) is the last man standing on the beach commanding the glaciers' melt waters to go back”

“We always knew how to honor fallen soldiers. They were killed for our sake, they went out on our mission. But how are we to mourn a random man killed in a terrorist attack while sitting in a cafe? How do you mourn a housewife who got on a bus and never returned?”
