Oliver Sacks It is very sad to hear of the dead of a person you admire. Oliver Sacks was a scientist who inspired me to see the world and people in another way. He wrote than "When people die, they cannot be replaced. They leave holes that cannot be filled, for it is the fate — the genetic and neural fate — of every human being to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death". That was touching. That declaration made me think about my life and what i am doing for make the world a better place. Rest in peace, Oliver. You was a incredible human being and a fount of inspiration for many young scientist.
