More quotes by Linus Pauling

Science cannot be stopped. Man will gather knowledge no matter what the consequences – and we cannot predict what they will be.

If you want to have good ideas you must have many ideas. Most of them will be wrong, and what you have to learn is which ones to throw away.

When an old and distinguished person speaks to you, listen to him carefully and with respect — but do not believe him. Never put your trust into anything but your own intellect.

Linus Pauling: Scientist and Peacemaker (2001)

I have always wanted to know as much as possible about the world.

Linus Pauling In His Own Words (1995)

We must not have a Nuclear war. We must begin to solve international disputes by the application of man's power of reason in a way that is worthy of the dignity of man.
