Science

In science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not the man to whom the idea first occurs.
- Sir Francis Darwin
Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.
Valery, Paul

2.
When we say science we can either mean any manipulation of the inventive and organizing power of the human intellect: or we can mean such an extremely different thing as the religion of science, the vulgarized derivative from this pure activity manipulated by a sort of priestcraft into a great religious and political weapon.
Lewis, Wyndham

3.
Men never do evil so fully and cheerfully as when we do it out of conscience.
Pascal, Blaise

4.
For undemocratic reasons and for motives not of State, they arrive at their conclusions -- largely inarticulate. Being void of self-expression they confide their views to none; but sometimes in a smoking room, one learns why things were done.
Kipling, Rudyard

5.
Dissent is the native activity of the scientist, and it has got him into a good deal of trouble in the last years. But if that is cut off, what is left will not be a scientist. And I doubt whether it will be a man.
Bronowski, Jacob

6.
If you look into your own heart, you find nothing wrong there, what is there to fear?
Confucius

7.
There does not exist a category of science to which one can give the name applied science. There are science and the applications of science, bound together as the fruit of the tree which bears it.
Pasteur, Louis

8.
Faith is a fine invention when Gentleman can see -- but microscopes are prudent in an emergency
Dickinson, Emily

9.
Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
Ingersoll, Robert Green

10.
O Star-eyed Science! hast thou wandered there, to waft us home the message of despair?
Campbell, Thomas

11.
It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young.
Konrad Lorenz

12.
People talk about the conscience, but it seems to me one must just bring it up to a certain point and leave it there. You can let your conscience alone if you're nice to the second housemaid.
James, Henry

13.
The Non-Conformist Conscience makes cowards of us all.
Beerbohm, Sir Max

14.
Science rests on reason and experiment, and can meet an opponent with calmness; but a belief is always sensitive.
Froude, James A.

15.
The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstrations for impressions.
Ruskin, John

16.
The conscience is the most flexible material in the world. Today you cannot stretch it over a mole hill; while tomorrow it can hide a mountain.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

17.
Everywhere you look in science, the harder it becomes to understand the universe without God.
Herrman, Robert

18.
Science knows only one commandment -- contribute to science.
Brecht, Bertolt

19.
Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. Biochemistry is the study of carbon compounds that crawl.
Adams, Mike

20.
The mythology of science asserts that with many different scientists all asking their own questions and evaluating the answers independently, whatever personal bias creeps into their individual answers is cancelled out when the large picture is put together. This might conceivably be so if scientists were women and men from all sorts of different cultural and social backgrounds who came to science with very different ideologies and interests. But since, in fact, they have been predominantly university-trained white males from privileged social backgrounds, the bias has been narrow and the product often reveals more about the investigator than about the subject being researched.
Hubbard, Ruth

21.
The beginning of compunction is the beginning of a new life.
Eliot, George

22.
Neurophysiologists will not likely find what they are looking for, for that which they are looking for is that which is looking.
Floyd, Keith

23.
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.
M. Cartmill

24.
The great tragedy of science is the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.
Huxley, Thomas H.

25.
Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other -- only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.
Parsons, Talcott

26.
Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today -- but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.
Asimov, Isaac

27.
Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.
Bertrand Russell

28.
Never do anything against conscience even if the state demands it.
Einstein, Albert

29.
Isn't it marvelous how those scientists know the names of all those stars?

30.
One science only will one genius fit; so vast is art, so narrow human wit.
Pope, Alexander

31.
We grow with years more fragile in body, but morally stutter, and can throw off the chill of a bad conscience almost at once.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

32.
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.
Lewis Thomas

33.
There are no better terms available to describe [The] difference between the approach of the natural and the social sciences than to call the former objective and the latter subjective. ... While for the natural scientist the contrast between objective facts and subjective opinions is a simple one, the distinction cannot as readily be applied to the object of the social sciences. The reason for this is that the object, the facts of the social sciences are also opinions -- not opinions of the student of the social phenomena, of course, but opinions of those whose actions produce the object of the social scientist.
Hayek, Friedrich August Von

34.
Conscience is the inner voice which warns us that someone may be looking.
Mencken, H. L.

35.
The conscience is the sacred haven of the liberty of man.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

36.
In science, all facts no matter how trivial, enjoy democratic equality.
Mccarthy, Mary

37.
The voice of conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear that it is impossible to mistake it.
Stael, Germaine De

38.
Freedom of conscience entails more dangers than authority and despotism.
Foucault, Michel

39.
There's not a whole lot of new atoms out there.
McDonough, Denny

40.
Reason often makes mistakes, but conscience never does.
Billings, Josh

41.
Everything is becoming science fiction. From the margins of an almost invisible literature has sprung the intact reality of the 20th century.
Ballard, J. G.

42.
The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

43.
Science has not solved problems, only shifted the points of problems.
Parkhurst, Charles H.

44.
The first rule of intelligent tinkering is to save all the parts.
Ehrlich, Paul

45.
There comes a time when every scientist, even God, has to write off an experiment.
James, P. D.

46.
Science is the century-old endeavor to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thorough-going an association as possible.
Einstein, Albert

47.
Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense, differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
Thomas H. Huxley

48.
Conscience: self-esteem with a halo.
Layton, Irving

49.
Science is all metaphor.
Leary, Timothy

50.
Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination.
Dewey, John
