The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were.

I set up a laboratory in the Department of Physiology in the Medical School in South Africa and begin to try to find a bacteriophage system which we might use to solve the genetic code.

Yet it looks as if the thing we use to solve our problems with is the source of our problems. It's like going to the doctor and having him make you ill. In fact in 20% of medical cases we do apparently have that going on. But in the case of thought its far over 20%.

I would like it to be known that I have decided not to marry Group Capt. Peter Townsend. Mindful of the church's teaching that Christian marriage is indissoluble and conscious of my duty to the Commonwealth I have resolved to put these considerations before any others.

Marriage is an attempt to solve problems together which you didn't even have when you were on your own.

There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love there's only scarcity of resolve to make it happen.

I do not believe in excuses. I believe in hard work as the prime solvent of life's problems.

Fortunately analysis is not the only way to resolve inner conflicts. Life itself still remains a very effective therapist.

Life is not a problem to be solved but a reality to be experienced.

You can't solve a problem as complex as inequality in one legal clause.
