Science

The most heated defenders of a science, who cannot endure the slightest sneer at it, are commonly those who have not made very much progress in it and are secretly aware of this defect.
- Lichtenberg, Georg C.
Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
Since we are assured that the all-wise Creator has observed the most exact proportions of number, weight and measure in the make of all things, the most likely way therefore to get any insight into the nature of those parts of the Creation which come within our observation must in all reason be to number, weigh and measure.
Hales, Stephen

2.
Science is simply common sense at its best--that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic.
Huxley, Thomas H.

3.
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Richard Feynman

4.
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
Albert Einstein

5.
If the study of all these sciences which we have enumerated, should ever bring us to their mutual association and relationship, and teach us the nature of the ties which bind them together, I believe that the diligent treatment of them will forward the objects which we have in view, and that the labor, which otherwise would be fruitless, will be well bestowed.
Plato

6.
Our lifetime may be the last that will be lived out in a technological society.
Clarke, Arthur C.

7.
Well: what we gain by science is, after all, sadness, as the Preacher saith. The more we know of the laws and nature of the Universe the more ghastly a business we perceive it all to be -- and the non-necessity of it.
Hardy, Thomas

8.
The microbe is so very small: You cannot take him out at all.
Belloc, Hilaire

9.
If it can't be expressed in figures, it's not science it's opinion.
Long, Lazarus

10.
Oh, how much is today hidden by science! Oh, how much it is expected to hide!
Nietzsche, Friedrich

11.
I maintain there is much more wonder in science than in pseudoscience. And in addition, to whatever measure this term has any meaning, science has the additional virtue, and it is not an inconsiderable one, of being true.
Carl Sagan

12.
When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
Arthur C. Clarke

13.
A clear conscience is a soft pillow.
Proverb, German

14.
The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
Levi-Strauss, Claude

15.
When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.
Einstein, Albert

16.
Conscience is the dog that can't bite, but never stops barking.
Proverb

17.
From man or angel the great Architect did wisely to conceal, and not divulge his secrets to be scanned by them who ought rather admire; or if they list to try conjecture, he his fabric of the heavens left to their disputes, perhaps to move his laughter at their quaint opinions wide hereafter, when they come to model heaven calculate the stars, how they will wield the mighty frame, how build, unbuild, contrive to save appearances, how gird the sphere with centric and eccentric scribbled o'er, and epicycle, orb in orb.
Milton, John

18.
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford

19.
The true science and study of man, is man himself.
Charron, Pierre

20.
If they don't depend on true evidence, scientists are no better than gossips.
Fitzgerald, Penelope

21.
Isn't it marvelous how those scientists know the names of all those stars?

22.
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

23.
Science is spectral analysis. Art is light synthesis.
Kraus, Karl

24.
The puritanical potentialities of science have never been forecast. If it evolves a body of organized rites, and is established as a religion, hierarchically organized, things more than anything else will be done in the name of decency. The coarse fumes of tobacco and liquors, the consequent tainting of the breath and staining of white fingers and teeth, which is so offensive to many women, will be the first things attended to.
Lewis, Wyndham

25.
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

26.
Whatever the scientists may say, if we take the supernatural out of life, we leave only the unnatural.
Barr, Amelia E.

27.
Thus will the fondest dream of Phallic science be realized: a pristine new planet populated entirely by little boy clones of great scientific entrepreneurs free to smash atoms, accelerate particles, or, if they are so moved, build pyramids -- without any social relevance or human responsibility at all.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

28.
They tend to be suspicious, bristly, paranoid-type people with huge egos they push around like some elephantiasis victim with his distended testicles in a wheelbarrow terrified no doubt that some skulking ingrate of a clone student will sneak into his very brain and steal his genius work.
Burroughs, William S.

29.
Science is but an image of the truth.
Bacon, Francis

30.
Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.
George Santayana

31.
Conscience is thoroughly well-bred and soon leaves off talking to those who do not wish to hear it.
Butler, Samuel

32.
While conscience is our friend, all is at peace; however once it is offended, farewell to a tranquil mind.
Montagu, Lady Mary Wortley

33.
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.

34.
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.

35.
Formal symbolic representation of qualitative entities is doomed to its rightful place of minor significance in a world where flowers and beautiful women abound.
Einstein, Albert

36.
Conscience: self-esteem with a halo.
Layton, Irving

37.
Faith is a fine invention when Gentleman can see -- but microscopes are prudent in an emergency
Dickinson, Emily

38.
If you look into your own heart, you find nothing wrong there, what is there to fear?
Confucius

39.
Science may be described as the art of systematic over-simplification.
Popper, Karl

40.
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

41.
When I am in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a drawing room full of dukes.
Auden, W. H.

42.
In science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not the man to whom the idea first occurs.
Sir Francis Darwin

43.
Science must have originated in the feeling that something was wrong.
Carlyle, Thomas

44.
One science only will one genius fit; so vast is art, so narrow human wit.
Pope, Alexander

45.
A seared conscience is one whose warning voice has been suppressed and perverted habitually, so that eventually instead of serving as a guide, it only confirms the person in his premeditatedly evil course.
Little, Robert J.

46.
Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.
Bertrand Russell

47.
Vanity of science. Knowledge of physical science will not console me for ignorance of morality in time of affliction, but knowledge of morality will always console me for ignorance of physical science.
Pascal, Blaise

48.
Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination.
Dewey, John

49.
Art is meant to disturb. Science reassures.
Braque, Georges

50.
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
