Douglas Mawson quotes

If we ignore the facts contained in one part of the world, surely we are hampering scientific advance. (Douglas Mawson)

On the fringe of an unspanned continent along whose gelid coast our comrades had made their home-we knew not where-we dwelt where the chill breath of a vast, Polar wilderness, quickening to the rushing might of eternal blizzards, surged to the northern seas.
