More from Alexander Fleming
"I have been accused of being untidy. I confess to being untidy, but I have never allowed my untidiness to interfere with my work."
"I have been working for many years on the problem of finding substances which would destroy microbes in the body without injuring the cells of the body."
"The discovery of penicillin was a matter of chance, but the application of it was a matter of hard work."
"My greatest satisfaction comes from knowing that my work has saved countless lives."
"It is not difficult to make microbes resistant to penicillin in the laboratory by exposing them to concentrations not sufficient to kill them, and the same thing has occasionally happened in the body."
