Willis R. Whitney Quotes
Necessity is not the mother of invention. Knowledge and experiment are its parents. It sometimes happens that successful search is made for unknown materials to fill well-recognized and predetermined requirements.

These facts strongly indicate the value of knowledge of properties of materials and indicate a way for research.
