Quote of the Day (James Watson, Disputing Conventional Wisdom on Scientists)



“One could not be a successful scientist without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of scientists, a goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.”-- Noble laurate James Watson, The Double Helix: A Personal Account of the Discovery of the Structure of DNA (1968)
