Motivational Quotes

Science

There are no better terms available to describe [The] difference between the approach of the natural and the social sciences than to call the former objective and the latter subjective. ... While for the natural scientist the contrast between objective facts and subjective opinions is a simple one, the distinction cannot as readily be applied to the object of the social sciences. The reason for this is that the object, the facts of the social sciences are also opinions -- not opinions of the student of the social phenomena, of course, but opinions of those whose actions produce the object of the social scientist.
- Hayek, Friedrich August Von
Science Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Science

1.
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford

2.
Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.
George Santayana

3.
The true science and study of man, is man himself.
Charron, Pierre

4.
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

5.
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.

6.
If it can't be expressed in figures, it's not science it's opinion.
Long, Lazarus

7.
Conscience is the dog that can't bite, but never stops barking.
Proverb

8.
I think remorse ought to stop biting the consciences that feed it.
Nash, Ogden

9.
Conscience is the window of our spirit, evil is the curtain.
Horton, Doug

10.
The product of mental labor -- science -- always stands far below its value, because the labor-time necessary to reproduce it has no relation at all to the labor-time required for its original production.
Marx, Karl

11.
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.

12.
Our conscience is not the vessel of eternal verities. It grows with our social life, and a new social condition means a radical change in conscience.
Lippmann, Walter

13.
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Noam Chomsky

14.
The chief prerequisite for a escort is to have a flexible conscience and an inflexible politeness.
Blessington, Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of

15.
There is one thing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its length: a quiet conscience.
Euripides

16.
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Richard Feynman

17.
In everything that relates to science, I am a whole Encyclopaedia behind the rest of the world.
Lamb, Charles

18.
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

19.
Science has always been too dignified to invent a good backscratcher.
Marquis, Don

20.
When I contemplate the accumulation of guilt and remorse which, like a garbage-can, I carry through life, and which is fed not only by the lightest action but by the most harmless pleasure, I feel Man to be of all living things the most biologically incompetent and ill-organized. Why has he acquired a seventy years life-span only to poison it incurably by the mere being of himself? Why has he thrown Conscience, like a dead rat, to putrefy in the well?
Connolly, Cyril

21.
Science is a game we play with God, to find out what his rules are.
Krasel, Cornelius

22.
Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.
Sontag, Susan

23.
Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.
Bertrand Russell

24.
Science is but the exchange of ignorance for that which is another kind of ignorance.
Byron, Lord

25.
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

26.
The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers.
Lewis Thomas

27.
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

28.
There is no witness so terrible and no accuser so powerful as conscience which dwells within us.
Sophocles

29.
Science is the systematic classification of experience.
Lewes, George Henry

30.
Perfect as the wing of a bird may be, it will never enable the bird to fly if unsupported by the air. Facts are the air of science. Without them a man of science can never rise.
Ivan Pavlov

31.
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

32.
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.

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

34.
There is an insistent tendency among serious social scientists to think of any institution which features rhymed and singing commercials, intense and lachrymose voices urging highly improbable enjoyment, caricatures of the human esophagus in normal and impaired operation, and which hints implausibly at opportunities for antiseptic seduction as inherently trivial. This is a great mistake. The industrial system is profoundly dependent on commercial television and could not exist in its present form without it.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

35.
Religions are the great fairy tales of conscience.
Santayana, George

36.
The conscience is the sacred haven of the liberty of man.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

37.
The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
Levi-Strauss, Claude

38.
Science is all metaphor.
Leary, Timothy

39.
Science knows only one commandment -- contribute to science.
Brecht, Bertolt

40.
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

41.
There are no better terms available to describe [The] difference between the approach of the natural and the social sciences than to call the former objective and the latter subjective. ... While for the natural scientist the contrast between objective facts and subjective opinions is a simple one, the distinction cannot as readily be applied to the object of the social sciences. The reason for this is that the object, the facts of the social sciences are also opinions -- not opinions of the student of the social phenomena, of course, but opinions of those whose actions produce the object of the social scientist.
Hayek, Friedrich August Von

42.
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

43.
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

44.
A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing; and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be erroneous.
Hobbes, Thomas

45.
The latest refinements of science are linked with the cruelties of the Stone Age.
Churchill, Winston

46.
Scientists are peeping toms at the keyhole of eternity.
Koestler, Arthur

47.
In many walks of life, a conscience is a more expensive encumbrance than a wife or a carriage.
Quincey, Thomas De

48.
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.

49.
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

50.
Science is simply common sense at its best--that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic.
Huxley, Thomas H.
