Many of us admired Henderson not only as a brilliant scientist but also as a person. We felt sure that his ideas came easily to him, yet his wife, to whom he was a devoted partner, insisted that he felt his successes were not easily achieved and were largely due to much hard work and perseverance. Do not fear to try new ideas. Discuss your ideas with others freely. Be quick to admit errors.
Progress comes by correcting mistakes.
Always be optimistic. Nature is benign. Enjoy your scientific work. It can be a great joy. All rights reserved.
