The Story of Louis Pasteur - Conflict Over Louis Pasteur's Reputation
Dr. Radisse:
So, you are now the saviour of the sheep, monsieur? Very interesting. He's the man who was responsible for the death of Dr. Francois, remember? He was run out of Paris.
Dr. Louis Pasteur:
Not quite, doctor.
Dr. Radisse: [sheep bleating]
Don't deny it! You were, and you were warned not to practice. Positively forbidden!
Dr. Radisse:
A prophet is never without followers, it seems.
Dr. Louis Pasteur:
But rarely such intelligent ones. These animals know what's good for them.
Dr. Radisse:
Perhaps you'll tell me what's good for them. I'd like to know, too.
Dr. Louis Pasteur:
I'm afraid it's hopeless, but I'll try.

The Story of Louis Pasteur - Debating the Efficacy of Vaccination
Dr. Louis Pasteur:
Will you try and explain to Dr. Radisse what we are doing? He's a member of the Academy of Medicine, so you'll have to use very simple language.
Dr. Emile Roux:
We're convinced, Doctor - after eight years of experimenting - that this vaccine, when injected into the animal, will set up an immunity.
Dr. Radisse:
Ridiculous! It would take eighty years to convince me.
Dr. Louis Pasteur:
Eighty? Aren't you a little optimistic?
