    His decision and bravery to fight for justice, ethics, morality, humanity and gender equality changed the course of history.
    He did because he had the power to change it.
    The only way to achieve equality in gender or race is if the discriminating party would stop discriminating.
    Sounds simple but it seems like an impossible fight since discrimination against women is the oldest discrimination in the history of mankind.

      It's not sexism is the oldest,it's race and skin colour, religion and many more issues that prevent mankind from reaching potential of expressing their purpose of life.This discrimination is a Global phenomenon.The way I see it,each individual must focus on their own progress not try to teach or change the world.By seeing the struggles of oneself,he/she may grow out of the disease of killing someone's potential.The West among all were the cunning culprits for the past 1000 years of discrimination and millions of white women benefitted and guilty of it too.

    Marie Curie, a pioneering scientist, did not die as a result of her own genius. She passed away on July 4, 1934, due to complications related to aplastic anemia, likely caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of ionizing radiation during her groundbreaking research on radioactivity. Her contributions to science, including the discovery of radium and polonium, remain significant despite the challenges she faced with her health.

He understood why women should not be underestimated. Marie Curie said she was taught that the way of progress was neither swift nor easy, and we can tell how humble and down-to-earth she was. Moreover, she and her husband did not exploit chances to get rich, they were selfless and lived for science and mankind. They deserve our deepest admiration and gratitude.
