Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Martin Luther King Jr.

2.
The first rule of intelligent tinkering is to save all the parts.
Ehrlich, Paul

3.
In everything that relates to science, I am a whole Encyclopaedia behind the rest of the world.
Lamb, Charles

4.
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

5.
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

6.
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.

7.
The more we learn of science, the more we see that its wonderful mysteries are all explained by a few simple laws so connected together and so dependent upon each other, that we see the same mind animating them all.
Brown, Olympia

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

9.
Nevertheless, in order to imbue civilization with sound principles and enliven it with the spirit of the gospel, it is not enough to be illumined with the gift of faith and enkindled with the desire of forwarding a good cause. For this end it is necessary to take an active part in the various organizations and influence them from within. And since our present age is one of outstanding scientific and technical progress and excellence, one will not be able to enter these organizations and work effectively from within unless he is scientifically competent, technically capable and skilled in the practice of his own profession.
Pope John XXIII

10.
Science is Christian, not when it condemns itself to the letter of things, but when, in the infinitely little, it discovers as many mysteries and as much depth and power as in the infinitely great.
Quinet, Edgar

11.
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

12.
I feel bad that I don't feel worse.
Frayn, Michael

13.
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

14.
Conscience has no more to do with gallantry than it has with politics.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

15.
Man has to awaken to wonder -- and so perhaps do peoples. Science is a way of sending him to sleep again.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig

16.
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

17.
In many walks of life, a conscience is a more expensive encumbrance than a wife or a carriage.
Quincey, Thomas De

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

19.
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

20.
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford

21.
A conscience without God is like a court without a judge.
Lamartine, Alphonse De

22.
There is no witness so terrible and no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
Sophocles

23.
Our ideas must be as broad as Nature if they are to interpret Nature.
Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan

24.
Conscience: self-esteem with a halo.
Layton, Irving

25.
When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.
Einstein, Albert

26.
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.

27.
I know of no department of natural science more likely to reward a man who goes into it thoroughly than anthropology. There is an immense deal to be done in the science pure and simple, and it is one of those branches of inquiry which brings one into contact with the great problems of humanity in every direction.
Huxley, Thomas H.

28.
A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing; and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be erroneous.
Hobbes, Thomas

29.
Science is for those who learn, poetry is for those who know.
Roux, Joseph

30.
Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth.
Daumal, Rene

31.
Art is meant to disturb. Science reassures.
Braque, Georges

32.
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.

33.
There's not a whole lot of new atoms out there.
McDonough, Denny

34.
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.

35.
Science rests on reason and experiment, and can meet an opponent with calmness; but a belief is always sensitive.
Froude, James A.

36.
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

37.
Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.
Sontag, Susan

38.
When a scientist is ahead of his times, it is often through misunderstanding of current, rather than intuition of future truth. In science there is never any error so gross that it won't one day, from some perspective, appear prophetic.
Rostand, Jean

39.
Science is but an image of the truth.
Bacon, Francis

40.
Science has explained nothing; the more we know the more fantastic the world becomes and the profounder the surrounding darkness.
Huxley, Aldous

41.
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

42.
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

43.
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.

44.
Science is the only truth and it is the great lie. It knows nothing, and people think it knows everything. It is misrepresented. People think that science is electricity, automobilism, and dirigible balloons. It is something very different. It is life devouring itself. It is the sensibility transformed into intelligence. It is the need to know stifling the need to live. It is the genius of knowledge vivisecting the vital genius.
Gourmont, Remy De

45.
If anybody says he can think about quantum physics without getting giddy, that only shows he has not understood the first thing about them.
Bohr, Niels

46.
There is only one way to achieve happiness on this terrestrial ball, and that is to have either a clear conscience or none at all.
Nash, Ogden

47.
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford

48.
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.
Valery, Paul

49.
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

50.
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.
