Written in 1895, Alfred Nobel's will endowed prizes for scientific research in chemistry, physics, and medicine.

Without discipline, there's no life at all.
I think you can judge from somebody's actions a kind of a stability and sense of purpose perhaps created by strong religious roots. I mean, there's a certain patience, a certain discipline, I think, that religion helps you achieve.
