वैज्ञानिकों में बच्चों जैसी एक बात समान होती है: जिज्ञासा। एक अच्छा वैज्ञानिक बनने के लिए आपको बचपन की इस खूबी को संजो कर रखना होगा, और शायद सिर्फ एक खूबी को बचाए रखना आसान नहीं होता। एक वैज्ञानिक को बच्चे की तरह जिज्ञासु होना ही पड़ता है; शायद इस बात को समझकर ही हम उनके भीतर की उन दूसरी बचकानी आदतों को भी समझ सकते हैं जिनसे वे कभी बड़े नहीं हो पाए।

Scientists have one thing in common with children: curiosity. To be a good scientist you must have kept this trait of childhood, and perhaps it is not easy to retain just one trait. A scientist has to be curious like a child; perhaps one can understand that there are other childish features he hasn't grown out of.

आज हम यह नहीं पूछते कि एक परमाणु के भीतर वास्तव में क्या चल रहा है; अब हम यह पूछते हैं कि जब हम परमाणुओं को प्रकाश, ऊष्मा, चुंबकीय क्षेत्रों या विद्युत धाराओं जैसे किसी निश्चित प्रभावों के अधीन करते हैं, तो क्या देखे जाने की संभावना है—और उसकी प्रायिकता (संभावना) क्या है।

Today we no longer ask what really goes on in an atom; we ask what is likely to be observed-and with what likelihood-when we subject atoms to any specified influences such as light or heat, magnetic fields or electric currents.

हम [फ्रिश् और लीस्रीट्नर] बर्फ में आगे-पीछे टहल रहे थे, मैं स्की पर था और वह पैदल चल रही थीं (उनका कहना था और उन्होंने साबित भी किया कि वे उस तरह से उतनी ही तेज़ी से चल सकती हैं), और धीरे-धीरे यह विचार स्पष्ट होने लगा कि यह नाभिक (न्यूक्लियस) का कोई छिलना या टूटना नहीं था, बल्कि यह बोर के उस विचार से समझाया जाने वाला एक प्रोसेस था जिसमें न्यूक्लियस एक तरल बूँद की तरह होता है; ऐसी बूँद लंबी हो सकती है और खुद को विभाजित कर सकती है।

We [Frisch and Lise Meitner] walked up and down in the snow, I on skis and she on foot (she said and proved that she could get along just as fast that way), and gradually the idea took shape that this was no chipping or cracking of the nucleus but rather a process to be explained by Bohr's idea that the nucleus was like a liquid drop; such a drop might elongate and divide itself.
