Humphry Davy Quotes

Cavendish Was A Great Man With Extraordinary Singularities - His Voice Was Squeaking His Manner Nervous He Was Afraid Of Strangers & Seemed When Embarrassed To Articulate With Difficulty - He Wore The Costume Of Our Grandfathers. Was Enormously Rich But Made No Use Of His Wealth ... Cavendish Lived Latterly The Life Of A Solitary, Came To The Club Dinner & To The Royal Society: But Received Nobody At His Home. He Was Acute Sagacious & Profound & I Think The Most Accomplished British Philosopher Of His Time.
