I think I make shoes quite okay.
I'm not easily inhibited by the fact that I don't know something about a subject. It doesn't stop me from dabbling in it.
I certainly saw science as a kind of calling, and one with as much legitimacy as a religious calling.
I believe I am a person with unusual talents. I think I'd be a liar or stupid if I were to deny that.
I did get a very fine education, and not just in science. It took some pressure on the part of my elders to convince me that I really should take an interest in humanities.
I wish I had a talent for dropping things as well as taking on new ones. It gets to be quite a clutter after a while.
I hope I've lived a life of science whose style will encourage younger people.

I know I'm gonna die so my revenge is living well.
There are many things worth living for, a few things worth dying for, and nothing worth killing for.
