Sir Arthur Eddington on Science
Science is one thing, wisdom is another. Science is an edged tool, with which men play like children, and cut their own fingers.
Richard Feynman on Science
Philosophers say a great deal about what is absolutely necessary for science, and it is always, so far as one can see, rather naive, and probably wrong.
Richard Feynman on Science
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Paul Dirac on Science
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Noam Chomsky on Science
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Martin Luther King, Jr. on Science
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Mark Twain on Science
There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
M. Cartmill on Science
As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls.
Louis Pasteur on Science
There are no such things as applied sciences, only applications of science.
Lewis Thomas on Science
The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers.
