Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
Rules of society are nothing; ones conscience is the umpire.
Dudevant, Madame

2.
Isn't it marvelous how those scientists know the names of all those stars?

3.
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof.
Ashley Montague

4.
Man lives for science as well as bread.
James, William

5.
My conscience hath a thousand several tongues, and every tongue brings in a several tale, and every tale condemns me for a villain.
Shakespeare, William

6.
There is one thing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its length: a quiet conscience.
Euripides

7.
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

8.
Furnished as all Europe now is with Academies of Science, with nice instruments and the spirit of experiment, the progress of human knowledge will be rapid and discoveries made of which we have at present no conception. I begin to be almost sorry I was born so soon, since I cannot have the happiness of knowing what will be known a hundred years hence.
Franklin, Benjamin

9.
Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.
George Santayana

10.
Science is all metaphor.
Leary, Timothy

11.
I have been a soreheaded occupant of a file drawer labeled Science Fiction and I would like out, particularly since so many serious critics regularly mistake the drawer for a urinal.
Vonnegut Jr., Kurt

12.
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Noam Chomsky

13.
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford

14.
Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.
Sontag, Susan

15.
If politicians and scientist were lazier, how much happier we should all be.
Waugh, Evelyn

16.
Science is what you know, philosophy what you don't know.
Russell, Bertrand

17.
If it can't be expressed in figures, it's not science it's opinion.
Long, Lazarus

18.
A bad conscience has a very good memory

19.
Science is always wrong, it never solves a problem without creating ten more.
Shaw, George Bernard

20.
I feel bad that I don't feel worse.
Frayn, Michael

21.
In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn't developed space travel were mere prehistory -- horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene -- and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

22.
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Richard Feynman

23.
Men never do evil so fully and cheerfully as when we do it out of conscience.
Pascal, Blaise

24.
O conscience, upright and stainless, how bitter a sting to thee is a little fault!
Dante Alighieri

25.
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

26.
The beginning of compunction is the beginning of a new life.
Eliot, George

27.
Researchers, with science as their authority, will be able to cut [Animals] up, alive, into small pieces, drop them from a great height to see if they are shattered by the fall, or deprive them of sleep for sixteen days and nights continuously for the purposes of an iniquitous monograph... Animal trust, undeserved faith, when at last will you turn away from us? Shall we never tire of deceiving, betraying, tormenting animals before they cease to trust us?
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

28.
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

29.
Our lifetime may be the last that will be lived out in a technological society.
Clarke, Arthur C.

30.
There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right.
Churchill, Winston

31.
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

32.
The pace of science forces the pace of technique. Theoretical physics forces atomic energy on us; the successful production of the fission bomb forces upon us the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb. We do not choose our problems, we do not choose our products; we are pushed, we are forced -- by what? By a system which has no purpose and goal transcending it, and which makes man its appendix.
Fromm, Erich

33.
Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science
Einstein, Albert

34.
Do you see this egg? With this you can topple every theological theory, every church or temple in the world.
Diderot, Denis

35.
It doesn't matter whether you're talking about bombs or the intelligence quotients of one race as against another if a man is a scientist, like me, he'll always say Publish and be damned.
Bronowski, Jacob

36.
Reason often makes mistakes, but conscience never does.
Billings, Josh

37.
Neurophysiologists will not likely find what they are looking for, for that which they are looking for is that which is looking.
Floyd, Keith

38.
Space or science fiction has become a dialect for our time.
Lessing, Doris

39.
A man ceases to be a beginner in any given science and becomes a master in that science when he has learned that he is going to be a beginner all his life.
Collingwood, Robin G.

40.
A clear conscience is a soft pillow.
Proverb, German

41.
Conscience is the inner voice which warns us that someone may be looking.
Mencken, H. L.

42.
The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstrations for impressions.
Ruskin, John

43.
He had been eight years upon a project for extracting sunbeams out of cucumbers, which were to be put into vials hermetically sealed, and let out to warm the air in raw, inclement summers.
Swift, Jonathan

44.
It is sometimes important for science to know how to forget the things she is surest of.
Rostand, Jean

45.
The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium. What a very few are acquiring in knowledge of the physical world will perhaps cause this period not to be judged as a pure return of barbarism.
Levi, Primo

46.
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.

47.
When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.
Einstein, Albert

48.
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

49.
Honor is the moral conscience of the great.
D'Avenant

50.
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
