A man intrigued by the whelms of organic chemistry... and math, to a lesser degree.

3 greatest quotes I've found are as follows:

• "Men of religion, do not, as a rule, make great men of Science."
• "Physics is applied Mathematics".
• "Chess is the gymnasium of the mind."

(P.S.-I very well know that all aren't quotes but nonetheless, they are statements with quite a lot of weight in them.)
