It’s Just a Theory — Yeah, Right La Presse

Way of the Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods

"I am afraid that the experiments you quote, Mr. Pasteur, will turn against you. The world into which you wish to take us is really too fantastic."

–La Presse, 1860

#WednesdayWisdom. Check it out! The great scientist Louis Pasteur was often vilified in public for his challenging theories, but rather than give up and succumb to ignorant opinions, Pasteur was determined to defend what he thought was true. Through irrefutable and meticulous experimentation, Pasteur was able to prove his theories on the microbial cause of disease. In my opinion, this is the kind of courage, persistence and intellectual honesty the world needs to solve all sorts of problems, not the least of which are economic. —Jim Woods August 28th 2019
