Your Majesty,Excellencies,Ladies and Gentlemen‘Eureka!’, that triumphant shout of Archimedes in his bath, is probably the most widely known phrase by a scientist of any place or age. But, as the American scientist Isaac Asimov wrote, ‘Eureka’ - I found it! - is not the most exciting shout in science. He said, and I quote: “The most exciting phrase in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is : "That's funny!." End of quote. And he is quite right.
