Life is not a bed of roses, but a bed of thorns. It is full of dangers and difficulties. In the race of life we should not be afraid of the risk. Science would not have made such wonderful achievements, if our scientists had not risked their lives and comforts. The more difficult a task is, the harder our efforts are to perform it.
