Quotes My mom helped me to do experiments and learn about how the microscope works, and from then on, it was just one fun discovery after another. Getting up any cliff is like a physics problem -- you just got to hold on, try everything, and stick with it. as quoted by Robin Beaver in Making 'one great discovery after another' - Marlan Scully embraced science as fervently as his love for the state, Made in Wyoming (2006) External links Category:Physicists from the United States Category:Living people Category:People from Wyoming Category:Yale University alumni Category:Princeton University faculty Category:Harvard University staff
