Enrico Fermi – It is no good to try to stop knowledge from going forward. Ignorance is never better than knowledge.

Enrico Fermi was an Italian–American physicist and the creator of the world’s first nuclear reactor, the Chicago Pile-1. He has been called the “architect of the nuclear age” and the “architect of the atomic bomb”. He was one of very few physicists to excel in both theoretical physics and experimental physics.
