Daily quote by Alfred Nobel
I would not leave anything to a man of action as he would be tempted to give up work; on the other hand, I would like to help dreamers as they find it difficult to get on in life.
As quoted in
Nobel, Dynamite and Peace
(1929) by Ragnar Sohlman and Henrik Schück, as translated by Brian Lunn and Beatrix Lunn, p. 249; also quoted by
Lester B. Pearson
in his
address on accepting the Nobel Peace Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway (10 December 1957)
