Alfred Nobel

I am a wanderer, a seeker, a dreamer.

My greatest regret is that I have not done more for humanity.

The human mind is capable of anything it can conceive and believe.

I have no time for small talk; I have too much to do.

The only true failure is to stop trying.

My inventions are for the benefit of mankind, not for its destruction.

I am a citizen of the world, not of any one country.

My laboratory is my sanctuary, my church, my home.

To understand is to forgive.

I am an idealist, but I am also a realist.

The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.

My legacy will be in the hands of those who follow me.

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

I have no doubt that humanity will eventually find a way to live in peace.

My greatest joy is to see my ideas come to life.

I am a lonely man, but I am never alone when I am working.

The world is full of opportunities, if only we have the courage to seize them.

My life has been a series of experiments, some successful, some not.

The true scientist is a dreamer, and a poet, and a philosopher.

I have no fear of death, only of not having lived fully.
