I have a memory that in one of Schumpeter's works he notes that  
Wieser or Bohm-Bawerk commented to him to the effect that  
"science progresses by the old professors dying off."  Can anyone  
help me find the source of this statement?   
 
I might add that Kuhn notes that Max Planck said "a new scientific  
truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making  
them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die,  
and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it" (as quoted in  
Marsden, _Fundamentalism and American Culture_, p. 215), but I  
am still quite sure I ran across the statement in the first paragraph  
in Schumpeter's writings.   
 
Thanks for your help!
