Green Thought for Today July 2, 2008

Dedicato a Massimo, Alberto e Loris, e a tutti coloro che stanno lavorando con passione a IBIOCAT, per catalizzare una migliore qualità della vita.

"Humanity needs practical men, who get the most out of their work, and, without forgetting the general good, safeguard their own interests. But humanity also needs dreamers, for whom the disinterested development of an enterprise is so captivating that it becomes impossible for them to devote their care to their own material profit.

Without doubt, these dreamers do not deserve wealth, because they do not desire it. Even so, a well-organized society should assure to such workers the efficient means of accomplishing their task, in a life free from material care and freely consecrated to research".

Marie Curie, (1867-1934) b. Warsaw, Poland (née Maria Sklodowska)
