Daniel Bernoulli

The force of a fluid flowing out of a vessel is proportional to the square root of the height of the fluid above the orifice.

In a steady flow, the sum of all forms of energy in a fluid along a streamline is the same at all points on that streamline.

The pressure of a fluid decreases as its velocity increases.

The most important discoveries are often made by combining seemingly disparate fields of knowledge.

It is not enough to know, we must also apply.

The true value of a discovery is not in its novelty, but in its utility.

Mathematics is the language in which God has written the universe.

The more we know, the more we realize how much we don't know.

Nature is always consistent with herself.

The art of discovery is to see what everyone else has seen, and to think what no one else has thought.

The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance, but the illusion of knowledge.

Truth is found in simplicity, not in the multiplicity of things.

The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.

I am convinced that the universe is not a chaos, but a cosmos, ordered by divine intelligence.

The pursuit of knowledge is a noble endeavor, but the application of knowledge is even nobler.

Every problem contains within itself the seeds of its own solution.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.

The more I study, the more I am convinced that the world is governed by laws, and not by chance.

The greatest pleasure in life is to discover something new.
