"Science is a state of mind, a way of thinking, and an integral part of our personalities. We can retire from an institution or academic appointment, but we never retire from the avocation and passion of science.
We can contribute until the brain no longer cooperates!" (source: Richard L. Douglass - Eastern Michigan University)
