| 1. | A living cell requires energy not only for all its functions, but also for the maintenance of its structure. |
|
| 2. | A vitamin is a substance that makes you ill if you don't eat it. |
|
| 3. | Discovery consists in seeing what everyone else has seen and thinking what no one else has thought. |
|
| 4. | Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different. |
|
| 5. | Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought. |
|
| 6. | Discovery is seeing what everybody else has seen, and thinking what nobody else has thought. |
|
| 7. | Energy from the sun's rays is trapped by green plants, and converted into a bound form, invested in a chemical reaction. |
|
| 8. | I am the son of a small and far-away nation and the other laureates have all come from different countries from all over the world and we all were equally received here with signs of sympathy. |
|
| 9. | I myself was (and still am) convinced, that, with regard to basic functions, as oxidation may be regarded representative of them, there are in principle no fundamental differences between animals and plants. |
|
| 10. | Investigations during the last few decades have brought hydrogen instead of carbon, and instead of CO2 water, the mother of all life, into the foreground. |
|
| 11. | Research is four things: brains with which to think, eyes with which to see, machines with which to measure and, fourth, money. |
|
| 12. | Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought. |
|
| 13. | So I set out to study the oxidation system in the potato, which, if damaged, causes the plant to turn brown. I did this in the hope of discovering, through these studies, the key to the understanding of adrenal function. |
|
| 14. | Supposedly, radiant energy was used to break down carbon dioxide. On oxidation carbohydrate was again combined with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. |
|
| 15. | The foodstuff, carbohydrate, is essentially a packet of hydrogen, a hydrogen supplier, a hydrogen donor, and the main event during its combustion is the splitting off of hydrogen. |
|
| 16. | The real scientist is ready to bear privation and, if need be, starvation rather than let anyone dictate to him which direction his work must take. |
|
| 17. | The source of this energy is the sun's radiation. |
|
| 18. | This celebration here tells me that this work is not hopeless. I thank you for this teaching with all my heart and lift my glass to human solidarity, to the ultimate victory of knowledge, peace, good-will and understanding. |
|
| 19. | This highest distinction has been awarded to us by an impartial judgement, without regard of our creed, race or nationality. |
|
| 20. | This oxidation of hydrogen in stages seems to be one of the basic principles of biological oxidation. |
|
| 21. | Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water. |
|
| 22. | Whatever man does he must do first in his mind. |
|
| 23. | Without energy life would be extinguished instantaneously, and the cellular fabric would collapse. |
