Scanning Probe Microscopes

Famous quotes containing the words probe and/or microscopes:

    “Y’know scientists are funny. We probe and measure and dissect. Invent lights without heat, weigh a caterpillar’s eyebrow. But when it comes to really important things we’re as stupid as the caveman.... Like love. Makes the world go ‘round, but what do we know about it? Is it a fact? Is it chemistry? Electricity?”
    —Martin Berkeley, and Jack Arnold. Helen Dobson (Lori Nelson)

    ““Faith” is a fine invention
    When Gentleman can see—
    But Microscopes are prudent
    In an Emergency.”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
