Mendeleev on the Periodic Law Quotes

“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.”
― Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev, Mendeleev on the Periodic Law: Selected Writings, 1869 - 1905
