I thought that that was a Niels Bohr saying. Bohr
died in 1962, this guy is still alive. But a review
said that he'd been writing for 50 years, i.e., since
1952.

P.S. Either way, it's pretty much bullshit,
      i.e., *not* a great truth. "The opposite
      of bullshit is sometimes bullshit",
      -Lee Corbin, 2003, a great truth perhaps.
