Quote of the Day/Week- Louis Pasteur




We continue our series of quotes from famous scientists this month with a quip from the French biologist and chemist Louis Pasteur (1822-1895); it would seem like a good complement to the Elvis Costello song "Accidents Will Happen," except that Pasteur lived in another century:

"Did you ever observe to whom accidents happen? Chance favors the prepared mind."
