Nuclear physics is interesting but it is unlikely to help society. -- John Cameron
I did a thesis in experimental nuclear physics under the direction of Samuel K. Allison. -- James Cronin
Originally I had planned to revert to nuclear physics there, in particular the structure of the deuteron. -- Walter Kohn
In 1947 I defended my thesis on nuclear physics, and in 1948 I was included in a group of research scientists whose task was to develop nuclear weapons. -- Andrei Sakharov
When I entered medical physics in 1958 there were fewer than 100 in the U.S. and I could see many opportunities to apply my knowledge of nuclear physics. -- John Cameron
If you're talking about nuclear physics, I have to defer to the next guy. But if you're talking about football, I don't have to take a back seat to anyone. -- Joe Greene
I think the writing of literature should give pleasure. What else should it be about? It is not nuclear physics. It actually has to give pleasure or it is worth nothing. -- Stephen Greenblatt
Many applications of the coincidence method will therefore be found in the large field of nuclear physics, and we can say without exaggeration that the method is one of the essential tools of the modern nuclear physicist. -- Walther Bothe
The most important advances, the qualitative leaps, are the least predictable. Not even the best scientists predicted the impact of nuclear physics, and everyday consumer items such as the iPhone would have seemed magic back in the 1950s. -- Martin Rees
There are good reasons why we don't want everyone to learn nuclear physics, medicine or how financial markets work. Our entire modern project has been about delegating power over us to skilled people who want to do the work and be rewarded accordingly. -- Evgeny Morozov
Although important nuclear physics work was to go on in laboratories such as ours had become - and we had to cut down to a lower energy group - it was not fundamentally opening up new insights on the structure of matter. That required you to be in a higher league. -- John Henry Carver
It's not brain surgery. It's not nuclear physics. It's television. It's only television. -- Linda Ellerbee
I did a thesis in experimental nuclear physics under the direction of Samuel K. Allison." -- James Cronin
That's the trouble with cookbooks. Like sex education and nuclear physics, they are founded on an illusion. They bespeak order, but they end in tears. -- Anthony Lane
We're cognizant, curious beings, capable of philosophical thought, nuclear physics, repeating Nerf weapons, global consciousness, Glade air fresheners, and sentient automobiles. But we're assholes first. -- Nick Offerman
I am a particle physicist, which is the nearest branch to nuclear physics. So in that sense I was the sort of right connection with the subject of nuclear energy and so on. -- Abdus Salam
