The story is told of Lord Kelvin, a famous Scotch physicist of the last century, that after he had given a lecture on atoms and molecules, one of his students came to him with the question, "Professor, what is your idea of the structure of the atom."

"That," remarked the facetious young man, "shows the disadvantage of knowing Greek."

Plagiarize,
Let no one else's work evade your eyes,

But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize...
