Martin Ryle: Citáty anglicky

“Our cleverness has grown prodigiously - but not our wisdom.”

in a letter http://www.scribd.com/doc/5062627/Ryle to Professor Carlos Chagas, president of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, 24 February 1983.
Kontext: The benefits of medical research are real - but so are the potential horrors of genetic engineering and embryo manipulation. We devise heart transplants, but do little for the 15 million who die annually of malnutrition and related diseases. Our cleverness has grown prodigiously - but not our wisdom.

“The glorious years of discovery in radio astronomy in the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge were dominated by the personality of Martin Ryle.”
