I was also interested in chemistry, but my parents were not willing to buy me a chemistry set.

This was good training for research, because large parts of experimental work are sometimes boring or involve the use of skills in which one is not particularly gifted.

As Jews, their families left Russia to escape the poverty and the antisemitism.

I'm thankful I don't have parents that I feel I need to get their attention. They've always been there for me.

Most people don't know what they spend in every single area, but they know they have a problem in particular areas.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.
