"The internal fittings of Boltzmann's lecture room were, relatively speaking, very modest. He wrote down the main calculations in the middle of three large blackboards and the subsidiary ones on the boards on either side, so that it would almost have been possible to reconstruct the entire lecture. Indeed Boltzmann was not only a very fine scientist who opened up entirely new fields in thermodynamics and statistics but he was also a man who aroused admiration and affection."

 

-- Austrian radiochemist Lise Meitner (1878-1968) on Ludwig Boltzmann.
