Professor Quotations

I am my own Universe, I my own Professor.
Sylvia Ashton-Warner

Whatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!
William James

I was at my best at a little past forty, when I was a professor at Oxford.
Godfrey Harold Hardy

A professor must have a theory as a dog must have fleas.
H. L. Mencken

There are no enemies in science, professor. Only phenomena to study.
Charles Lederer
