"Some of the greatest, most revolutionary advances in science have been given their initial expression in attractively modest terms, with no fanfare."

As we conquer peak after peak we see in front of us regions full of interest and beauty, but we do not see our goal, we do not see the horizon; in the distance tower still higher peaks, which will yield to those who ascend them still wider prospects, and deepen the feeling, the truth of which is emphasized by every advance in science, that 'Great are the Works of the Lord'.

— Joseph John Thomson
