The first rule of intelligent tinkering is to save all the parts.

Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
The great tragedy of science is the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.
Huxley, Thomas H.

2.
It is sometimes important for science to know how to forget the things she is surest of.
Rostand, Jean

3.
Conscience has no more to do with gallantry than it has with politics.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

4.
The sciences do not try to explain, they hardly even try to interpret, they mainly make models. By a model is meant a mathematical construct which, with the addition of certain verbal interpretations describes observed phenomena. The justification of such a mathematical construct is solely and precisely that it is expected to work.
Neumann, John Von

5.
We are living now, not in the delicious intoxication induced by the early successes of science, but in a rather grisly morning-after, when it has become apparent that what triumphant science has done hitherto is to improve the means for achieving unimproved or actually deteriorated ends.
Huxley, Aldous

6.
Science fiction writers, I am sorry to say, really do not know anything. We can't talk about science, because our knowledge of it is limited and unofficial, and usually our fiction is dreadful.
Dick, Philip K.

7.
Science is not about control. It is about cultivating a perpetual sense of wonder in the face of something that forever grows one step richer and subtle than our latest theory about it. It is about reverence, not mastery.
Powers, Richard

8.
There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art. Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery.
Chandler, Raymond

9.
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.
Valery, Paul

10.
A bad conscience has a very good memory

11.
What a man calls his conscience is merely the mental action that follows a sentimental reaction after too much wine or love.
Rowland, Helen

12.
Conscience was the barmaid of the Victorian soul. Recognizing that human beings were fallible and that their failings, though regrettable, must be humored, conscience would permit, rather ungraciously perhaps, the indulgence of a number of carefully selected desires.
Joad, C. E. M.

13.
Science, which cuts its way through the muddy pond of daily life without mingling with it, casts its wealth to right and left, but the puny boatmen do not know how to fish for it.
Herzen, Alexander

14.
If you look into your own heart, you find nothing wrong there, what is there to fear?
Confucius

15.
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

16.
A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing; and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be erroneous.
Hobbes, Thomas

17.
The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not'Eureka!'(I found it!) but'That's funny ...'
Isaac Asimov

18.
There is one thing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its length: a quiet conscience.
Euripides

19.
Everywhere you look in science, the harder it becomes to understand the universe without God.
Herrman, Robert

20.
Art is meant to disturb. Science reassures.
Braque, Georges

21.
Science is but the exchange of ignorance for that which is another kind of ignorance.
Byron, Lord

22.
Rules of society are nothing; ones conscience is the umpire.
Dudevant, Madame

23.
Interestingly, according to modern astronomers, space is finite. This is a very comforting thought - particularly for people who can never remember where they left things.
Allen, Woody

24.
If science fiction is the mythology of modern technology, then its myth is tragic.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

25.
No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Byron, Lord

26.
Science is facts; just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
Henri Poincare

27.
We have genuflected before the god of science only to find that it has given us the atomic bomb, producing fears and anxieties that science can never mitigate.
King Jr. Martin Luther

28.
Science is for those who learn, poetry is for those who know.
Roux, Joseph

29.
The man of science is a poor philosopher.
Einstein, Albert

30.
A body of work such as Pasteur's is inconceivable in our time: no man would be given a chance to create a whole science. Nowadays a path is scarcely opened up when the crowd begins to pour in.
Rostand, Jean

31.
Science may be described as the art of systematic over-simplification.
Popper, Karl

32.
There is not much that even the most socially responsible scientists can do as individuals, or even as a group, about the social consequences of their activities.
Hobsbawm, E. J.

33.
O Star-eyed Science! hast thou wandered there, to waft us home the message of despair?
Campbell, Thomas

34.
Science has nothing to be ashamed of even in the ruins of Nagasaki. The shame is theirs who appeal to other values than the human imaginative values which science has evolved.
Bronowski, Jacob

35.
Conscience is thoroughly well-bred and soon leaves off talking to those who do not wish to hear it.
Butler, Samuel

36.
Conscience is the mirror of our souls, which represents the errors of our lives in their full shape.
Bancroft, George

37.
Science is analytical, descriptive, informative. Man does not live by bread alone, but by science he attempts to do so. Hence the deadliness of all that is purely scientific.
Gill, Eric

38.
Science is feasible when the variables are few and can be enumerated; when their combinations are distinct and clear. We are tending toward the condition of science and aspiring to do it. The artist works out his own formulas; the interest of science lies in the art of making science.
Valery, Paul

39.
If they don't depend on true evidence, scientists are no better than gossips.
Fitzgerald, Penelope

40.
Again and again I am brought up against it, and again and again I resist it: I don't want to believe it, even though it is almost palpable: the vast majority lack an intellectual conscience; indeed, it often seems to me that to demand such a thing is to be in the most populous cities as solitary as in the desert.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

41.
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
Albert Einstein

42.
Whatever the scientists may say, if we take the supernatural out of life, we leave only the unnatural.
Barr, Amelia E.

43.
Science is but an image of the truth.
Bacon, Francis

44.
Science is one thing, wisdom is another. Science is an edged tool, with which men play like children, and cut their own fingers.
Sir Arthur Eddington

45.
There is no greater impediment to progress in the sciences than the desire to see it take place too quickly.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

46.
There is no witness so terrible and no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
Sophocles

47.
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

48.
In science, all facts no matter how trivial, enjoy democratic equality.
Mccarthy, Mary

49.
One science only will one genius fit; so vast is art, so narrow human wit.
Pope, Alexander

50.
When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.
Einstein, Albert
