Best Quotes about Science
Everybody's a mad scientist, and life is their lab. We're all trying to experiment to find a way to live, to solve problems, to fend off madness and chaos.
Cronenberg, David
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.
We must not forget that when radium was discovered no one knew that it would prove useful in hospitals. The work was one of pure science. And this is a proof that scientific work must not be considered from the point of view of the direct usefulness of it. It must be done for itself, for the beauty of science, and then there is always the chance that a scientific discovery may become like the radium a benefit for humanity.
Marie Curie
It is sometimes important for science to know how to forget the things she is surest of.
Rostand, Jean
He who sacrifices his conscience to ambition burns a picture to obtain the ashes.
Proverb, Chinese
Aristotle could have avoided the mistake of thinking that women have fewer teeth than men, by the simple device of asking Mrs. Aristotle to keep her mouth open while he counted.
Russell, Bertrand
The fancy that extraterrestrial life is by definition of a higher order than our own is one that soothes all children, and many writers.
Didion, Joan
Men never do evil so fully and cheerfully as when we do it out of conscience.
Pascal, Blaise
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
Science is simply common sense at its best--that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic.
Huxley, Thomas H.
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
Dissent is the native activity of the scientist, and it has got him into a good deal of trouble in the last years. But if that is cut off, what is left will not be a scientist. And I doubt whether it will be a man.
Bronowski, Jacob
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
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
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford
God may forgive your sins, but your nervous system won t.
Conscience is a man's compass.
Gogh, Vincent Van
There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right.
Churchill, Winston
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
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.
We grow with years more fragile in body, but morally stutter, and can throw off the chill of a bad conscience almost at once.
Smith, Logan Pearsall
There are no such things as applied sciences, only applications of science.
Louis Pasteur
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.
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.
In science, all facts no matter how trivial, enjoy democratic equality.
Mccarthy, Mary
In scientific work, those who refuse to go beyond fact rarely get as far as fact.
Huxley, Thomas H.
I think remorse ought to stop biting the consciences that feed it.
Nash, Ogden
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
Today the function of the artist is to bring imagination to science and science to imagination, where they meet, in the myth.
Connolly, Cyril
Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.
Asimov, Isaac
Space or science fiction has become a dialect for our time.
Lessing, Doris
Whatever the scientists may say, if we take the supernatural out of life, we leave only the unnatural.
Barr, Amelia E.
Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.
Bertrand Russell
Science is always wrong, it never solves a problem without creating ten more.
Shaw, George Bernard
There is no greater impediment to progress in the sciences than the desire to see it take place too quickly.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense, differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
Thomas H. Huxley
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
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
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.
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
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
The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
Levi-Strauss, Claude
In science men have discovered an activity of the very highest value in which they are no longer, as in art, dependent for progress upon the appearance of continually greater genius, for in science the successors stand upon the shoulders of their predecessors; where one man of supreme genius has invented a method, a thousand lesser men can apply it.
Russell, Bertrand
Honor is the moral conscience of the great.
D'Avenant
Freedom of conscience entails more dangers than authority and despotism.
Foucault, Michel
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
The credit of advancing science has always been due to individuals and never to the age.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Science is the century-old endeavor to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thorough-going an association as possible.
Einstein, Albert
The beginning of compunction is the beginning of a new life.
Eliot, George
My conscience aches but it's going to lose the fight.
Myles, Allanah
