Science

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



Best Quotes about Science

1.
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

2.
I think remorse ought to stop biting the consciences that feed it.
Nash, Ogden

3.
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Noam Chomsky

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

6.
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof.
Ashley Montague

7.
If politicians and scientist were lazier, how much happier we should all be.
Waugh, Evelyn

8.
The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstrations for impressions.
Ruskin, John

9.
The negative cautions of science are never popular. If the experimentalist would not commit himself, the social philosopher, the preacher, and the pedagogue tried the harder to give a short-cut answer.
Mead, Margaret

10.
The latest refinements of science are linked with the cruelties of the Stone Age.
Churchill, Winston

11.
It is not easy to imagine how little interested a scientist usually is in the work of any other, with the possible exception of the teacher who backs him or the student who honors him.
Rostand, Jean

12.
That is the essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to a pertinent answer.
Bronowski, Jacob

13.
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

14.
Everywhere you look in science, the harder it becomes to understand the universe without God.
Herrman, Robert

15.
Natural science will in time incorporate into itself the science of man, just as the science of man will incorporate into itself natural science: there will be one science.
Marx, Karl

16.
Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary.
Einstein, Albert

17.
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

18.
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.

19.
In science,'fact'can only mean'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.'I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.
Stephen Jay Gould

20.
In many walks of life, a conscience is a more expensive encumbrance than a wife or a carriage.
Quincey, Thomas De

21.
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

22.
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

23.
A man's moral conscience is the curse he had to accept from the gods in order to gain from them the right to dream.
Faulkner, William

24.
Science has not solved problems, only shifted the points of problems.
Parkhurst, Charles H.

25.
Labor to keep alive in your breast that little spark of celestial fire called conscience
Washington, George

26.
Conscience is our magnetic compass; reason our chart.
Cook, Joseph

27.
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.
Valery, Paul

28.
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.

29.
The beginning of compunction is the beginning of a new life.
Eliot, George

30.
Conscience: self-esteem with a halo.
Layton, Irving

31.
My conscience aches but it's going to lose the fight.
Myles, Allanah

32.
Conscience has no more to do with gallantry than it has with politics.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

33.
Can a society in which thought and technique are scientific persist for a long period, as, for example, ancient Egypt persisted, or does it necessarily contain within itself forces which must bring either decay or explosion?
Russell, Bertrand

34.
Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
Ingersoll, Robert Green

35.
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Martin Luther King Jr.

36.
In everything that relates to science, I am a whole Encyclopaedia behind the rest of the world.
Lamb, Charles

37.
The innocent seldom find an uncomfortable pillow.
Cowper, William

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

39.
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford

40.
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

41.
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

42.
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.

43.
Art is meant to disturb. Science reassures.
Braque, Georges

44.
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

45.
There's not a whole lot of new atoms out there.
McDonough, Denny

46.
The conscience is the sacred haven of the liberty of man.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

47.
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

48.
A bad conscience has a very good memory

49.
True science investigates and brings to human perception such truths and such knowledge as the people of a given time and society consider most important. Art transmits these truths from the region of perception to the region of emotion.
Tolstoy, Count Leo

50.
There is no witness so terrible and no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
Sophocles
