Famous quotes containing the words research and/or vessels:

    “If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.”
    —Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)

    “Just as bones, tissues, intestines, and blood vessels are enclosed in a skin that makes it possible to bear the sight of a human being, so the agitations and passions of the soul are wrapped up in vanity: it is the soul’s skin.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
