About This Quote
A true scientist acknowledges that Nature can be beautiful in more ways than one. One of the most remarkable discoveries in modern science is how much we still don’t know about the world around us. Scientists are still trying to understand the inner workings of cells, the connections between neurons, and how life emerged on Earth. Much of what we know about nature comes from using telescopes and microscopes to study microscopic organisms. Although small, these organisms are capable of amazing feats, like moving like humans or playing music with their bodies.
