"I'm lucky" used later to say Otto Hahn. "Any skilled chemist would have to discover it." Humility, kindness and humor were traits of the scholar who was born in 1879 in Frankfurt am Main.
With all honours, he intended always benefits Liese Meitners, his assistant until 1933. Friendship and the aversion of any pathos connected him with the first Federal President Theodor Heuss.
As later, he was awarded the Nobel Prize, 1947 was that memorable dialogue with the old physicist Max Planck.
Planck: We are proud of You and me hope give to me, that the consequences of their great discovery will benefit in the future only for peaceful purposes.
