Quote by Erwin Chargaff



Hello--

I came across the following quotation by Erwin Chargaff in an article
entitled "In Praise of Smallness--How Can We Return to Small Science" in
"Perspectives in Biological Medicine", Spring 1980 (p. 374):

"A country that neglects the education of its young people suffers
irremediable damage: it will consist of barbarians with special skills."
