"Humboldt's early biographer, F.A. Schwarzenberg, subtitled his life of Humboldt What May Be Accomplished in a Lifetime. He summarised the areas of his subject's extraordinary curiosity as follows: '1) The knowledge of the Earth and its inhabitants. 2) The discovery of the higher laws of nature, which govern the universe, men, animals, plants, minerals. 3) The discovery of new forms of life. 4) The discovery of territories hitherto but imperfectly known, and their various productions. 5)The acquaintance with new species of the human race--- their manners, their language and the historical traces of their culture.' What may be accomplished in a lifetime---and seldom or never is."

"We must expect the discovery of many as yet unknown elements-for example, elements analogous to aluminum and silicon- whose atomic weight would be between 65 and 75."
Discovery

"There is nothing in this world that I fear to say."
Fear

"Work, look for peace and calm in work: you will find it nowhere else."
Peace

"Elements which are similar as regards their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (eg. Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (eg. K, Ru, Cs)."
Values

"I have achieved an inner freedom."
Freedom

"The magnitude of the atomic weight determines the character of the element, just as the magnitude of the molecule determines the character of a compound body."
Character

"It is the function of science to discover the existence of a general reign of order in nature and to find the causes governing this order. And this refers in equal measure to the relations of man - social and political - and to the entire universe as a whole."
Nature

"No law of nature, however general, has been established all at once; its recognition has always been preceded by many presentiments."
Nature

"Pleasures flit by - they are only for yourself; work leaves a mark of long-lasting joy, work is for others."
