    Isidor Isaac Rabi was a Galician-born American physicist who won the 1944 Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance. He credited his mother for inspiring his scientific curiosity by always asking him if he asked a good question in school that day rather than just asking if he learned anything, which drove him to keep asking questions and ultimately become a scientist.

    Isidor Isaac Rabi

    ( 29 July 1898 11 January 1988)

    He was a Galician-born American physicist and Nobel laureate recognized in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance.
    His famous quote:

    My mother made me a scientist without ever intending to. Every other Jewish mother in Brooklyn would ask her child after school: So? Did you learn anything today? But not my mother. "Izzy," she would say, "did you ask a good question today?" That difference-asking good questions--made me become a scientist.
