Humphry Davy

The more I learn, the more I am convinced of my own ignorance.

I send you my best wishes for your success.

The pursuit of truth is the noblest of all human endeavors.

I am always happy to receive your letters.

I have been much occupied with my researches.

I hope this letter finds you in good health.

The love of knowledge is the most powerful of all human passions.

I am much indebted to you for your kindness.

The universe is a vast and mysterious place, full of wonders yet to be discovered.

I am always glad to hear from you.

The mind is a wonderful instrument, capable of achieving great things.

I have been much engaged in my experiments, and have made some interesting discoveries.

The pursuit of science is a noble and rewarding endeavor.

I send you my warmest regards.

I am always happy to assist you in your scientific pursuits.

Nothing is so fatal to the progress of the human mind as to suppose that our views of science are ultimate; that there are no new worlds to conquer; that there is no more truth to be discovered.

Science is a light which illuminates the darkness of ignorance, and discovers the hidden treasures of nature.

The most important of all the applications of science is to the improvement of the human mind.
