I have always been a strong advocate for peace, and I believe that science can play a role in promoting peace.

The pursuit of scientific knowledge is a journey, not a destination.

The most important thing is to have a passion for what you do, and to never lose your sense of wonder.

I am grateful for the opportunities I have had in my life, and I hope that I have made a positive contribution to science.

The atom bomb is a terrible invention, and I hope that it will never be used again.

The most important thing is to never stop exploring, and to always be curious.

Science makes people reach selflessly for truth and objectivity; it teaches people to accept reality, with wonder and admiration, not to mention the deep awe and joy that the natural order of things brings to the true scientist.

You must not blame us scientists for the use which war technicians have put our discoveries.

I will have nothing to do with a bomb!

It is an unfortunate accident that this discovery (fission) was made in time of war.
