A Matter of Fact
"MY creed as a scientific worker rests on an almost religious conviction about the goodness of measured facts; that all facts are good; they may be facts about bad things, but if they are facts they’re good and valuable. I believe that the measured facts of basic science, the observed relations among ‘them, and the tentative theories based on these relations, should be published for everyone to know."-Sir Robert Watson-Watt in a BBC talk.
