Quotatious Friday

So, I dont usually do regular blog posts on specific themes, however my recent post on personalities had a few quotes involved and it reminded me of my love of quotes. So, every Friday (just because I couldnt think of a better day to do it) I will highlight a quote and why I find it so remarkable and why it puts a smile on my face.

One of my all time favourite quotes come out of my field of expertise.

One sometimes finds what one is not looking for - Alexander Fleming

You may not recognise the name, but I would bet that all of you recognise his work. This quote is in reference to his discovery of penicillin together with the wonderful Australian, Howard Florey and the German biochemist, Ernst Boris Chain. Earning the three of them the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine  in 1945.

What are some of your favourite quotes? Any suggestions for a better name than Quotatious Friday?
