I don't believe medical discoveries are doing much to advance human life. As fast as we create ways to extend it we are inventing ways to shorten it.
Another cause of change one less noticeable but fundamental is the modern growth of population closely connected with scientific and medical discoveries. It is interesting that the United Nations has set up a special Commission to study this question.
I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.
Seeds of great discoveries are constantly floating around us but they only take root in minds well prepared to receive them.
The very greatest things - great thoughts discoveries inventions - have usually been nurtured in hardship often pondered over in sorrow and at length established with difficulty.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science the one that heralds new discoveries is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny...'
For more than 200 years materialists have promised that science will eventually explain everything in terms of physics and chemistry. Believers are sustained by the faith that scientific discoveries will justify their beliefs.
The most important of my discoveries have been suggested to me by my failures.
