Ernest Lawrence Quotes
We have reached the age, those of us to whom fortune has assigned a post in life's struggle, when beaten and smashed and biffed by the lashing of the dragon's tail, we begin to appreciate that the old man was not such a fool after all.

We have hit the dragon on the head and we have seen the dragon smile.
