Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement.
Oscar Wilde
The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray, and the advantage of science is that it is not emotional.
Oscar Wilde
Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art.
Will Durant
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Martin Luther King Jr.
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
In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual.
Galileo Galilei
Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination.
John Dewey
The whole history of science has been the gradual realization that events do not happen in an arbitrary manner, but that they reflect a certain underlying order, which may or may not be divinely inspired.
Stephen Hawking
There are no such things as applied sciences, only applications of science.
Louis Pasteur
To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree.
Charles Darwin
Science is organized common sense where many a beautiful theory was killed by an ugly fact.
Thomas Henry Huxley
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
The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.
Albert Einstein
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
The most important scientific revolutions all include, as their only common feature, the dethronement of human arrogance from one pedestal after another of previous convictions about our centrality in the cosmos.
Stephen Jay Gould
Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.
George Santayana
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
Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.
Bertrand Russell
Science is facts; just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
Henri Poincare
I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale.
Marie Curie
The true science and study of man is man.
Pierre Charron
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford
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
Anybody who has been seriously engaged is scientific work of any kind realizes that over the entrance to the gates of the temple of science are written the words: 'Ye must have faith.' It is a quality which the scientist cannot dispense with.
Max Planck
Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts.
Richard Feynman
The scientific community having made a rapid ascent from deep poverty to great affluence, from academe's cloisters to Washington's high councils, still tends to be a bit excitable - not unlike a nouveau riche in a fluctuating market.
Daniel S. Greenberg
The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.
Claude Levi strauss
Science is all metaphor.
Timothy Leary
Science is the refusal to believe on the basis of hope.
Carrie P. Snow
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
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof.
Ashley Montague
Science is one thing, wisdom is another. Science is an edged tool, with which men play like children, and cut their own fingers.
Sir Arthur Eddington
There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the latter ignorance.
Hippocrates
Truth in science can be defined as the working hypothesis best suited to open the way to the next better one.
Konrad Lorenz
Science is the knowledge of consequences, and dependence of one fact upon another.
Thomas Hobbes
Scientific discovery and scientific knowledge have been achieved only by those who have gone in pursuit of it without any practical purpose whatsoever in view.
Max Planck
There is one thing even more vital to science than intelligent methods; and that is, the sincere desire to find out the truth, whatever it may be.
Charles Pierce
No science is immune to the infection of politics and the corruption of power.
Jacob Bronowski
Every scientific truth goes through three states: first, people say it conflicts with the Bible; next, they say it has been discovered before lastly, they say they always believed it.
Louis Agassiz
New discoveries in science will continue to create a thousand new frontiers for those who still would adventure.
Herbert Hoover
Creativity in science could be described as the act of putting two and two together to make five.
Arthur Koestler
So long as the mother, Ignorance, lives, it is not safe for Science, the offspring, to divulge the hidden cause of things.
Johannes Kepler
Physics does not change the nature of the world it studies, and no science of behavior can change the essential nature of man, even though both sciences yield technologies with a vast power to manipulate the subject matters.
Pope Paul Vi
Great moments in science: Einstein discovers that time is actually money.
Gary Larson
Science by itself has no moral dimension. But it does seek to establish truth. And upon this truth morality can be built.
Dr. William H. Masters
The next major explosion is going to be when genetics and computers come together. I'm talking about an organic computer - about biological substances that can function like a semiconductor.
Alvin Toffler
Science is for those who learn; poetry, for those who know.
Joseph Roux
I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.
Richard Feynman
In science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not the man to whom the idea first occurs.
Sir Francis Darwin
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Avram Noam Chomsky
Why it is that of all the billions and billions of strange objects in the Cosmos-novas, quasars, pulsars, black holes-you are beyond doubt the strangest?
Walker Percy
Evolutionary biology is now uttering and seeking those forces that link us with all those that have being.
Adrian Forsyth
I like to browse in occult bookshops if for no other reason than to refresh my commitment to science.
Heinz R. Pagels
In science, all facts, no matter how trivial or banal, enjoy democratic equality.
Mary Mccarthy
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford
A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.
Max Planck
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
Our scientific age demands that we provide definitions, measurements, and statistics in order to be taken seriously. Yet most of the important things in life cannot be precisely defined or measured. Can we define or measure love, beauty, friendship, or decency, for example?
Dennis Prager
If scientific reasoning were limited to the logical processes of arithmetic, we should not get very far in our understanding of the physical world. One might as well attempt to grasp the game of poker entirely by the use of the mathematics of probability.
Vannevar Bush
Women make up only 25 percent of the science, engineering and technology workforce... We are delighted to be working with NASA Ames to give Silicon Valley area girls a chance to explore and develop their potential in science at an age when many begin to drift away from their natural interest.
Sally Ride
There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
Mark Twain
When science and the Bible differ, science has obviously misinterpreted its data.
Henry Morris
The insidiousness of science lies in its claim to be not a subject, but a method.
Katherine Fullerton Gerould
We especially need imagination in science. It is not all mathematics, nor all logic, but it is somewhat beauty and poetry.
Maria Montessori
Philosophers say a great deal about what is absolutely necessary for science, and it is always, so far as one can see, rather naive, and probably wrong.
Richard Feynman
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.
Edgar Quinet
The main purpose of science is simplicity and as we understand more things, everything is becoming simpler.
Edward Teller
Science is a method to keep yourself from kidding yourself.
Edwin H. Land
The only possible conclusion the social sciences can draw is: some do, some don't.
Ernest Rutherford
Science is wonderfully equipped to answer the question "How?" but it gets terribly confused when you ask the question "Why?"
Erwin Chargaff
In those parts of the world where learning and science has prevailed, miracles have ceased; but in those parts of it as are barbarous and ignorant, miracles are still in vogue.
Ethan Allen
It's not a ladder we're climbing, it's literature we're producing. . . . We cannot possibly leave it to history as a discipline nor to sociology nor science nor economics to tell the story of our people.
Nikki Giovanni
Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.
Carl Sagan
I repeat that sin, man's self-violation par excellence, was invented purely inorder to make science, culture, and every elevation and ennobling of man impossible; the priest rules by the invention of sin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I don't play accurately-any one can play accurately- but I play with wonderful expression. As far as the piano is concerned, sentiment is my forte. I keep science for Life.
Oscar Wilde
Success is a science; if you have the conditions, you get the result.
Oscar Wilde
Science is the record of dead religions.
Oscar Wilde
Science is good furniture for one's upper chamber, if there is common sense below.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
A central lesson of science is that to understand complex issues (or even simple ones), we must try to free our minds of dogma and to guarantee the freedom to publish, to contradict, and to experiment. Arguments from authority are unacceptable.
Carl Sagan
If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?
Carl Sagan
We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.
Carl Sagan
Skeptical scrutiny is the means, in both science and religion, by which deep insights can be winnowed from deep nonsense.
Carl Sagan
Science has not yet taught us if madness is or is not the sublimity of the intelligence.
Edgar Allan Poe
Fashion is the science of appearances, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
Michel de Montaigne
Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world.
Louis Pasteur
Society is indeed a contract. It is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.
Edmund Burke
Science gives us knowledge, but only philosophy can give us wisdom.
Will Durant
The fact of evolution is the backbone of biology, and biology is thus in the peculiar position of being a science founded on an improved theory, is it then a science or faith?
Charles Darwin
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.
Charles Darwin
Those who become enamored of practices without science are like sailors who go aboard ship without a rudder and compass, for they are never certain where they will land.
Leonardo da Vinci
Science is but an image of the truth.
Sir Francis Bacon
Be you in what line of life you may, it will be amongst your misfortunes if you have not time properly to attend to pecuniary [monetary] matters. Want of attention to these matters has impeded the progress of science and of genius itself.
William Cobbett
Religion is to mysticism what popularization is to science.
Henri Bergson
Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense.
Thomas H. Huxley
Science comits suicide when it adopts a creed.
Thomas H. Huxley
Religion and science both profess peace (and the sincerity of the professors is not being doubted), but each always turns out to have a dominant part in any war that is going or contemplated.
Howard Nemerov
The greatest advances of civilization, whether in architecture or painting, in science and literature, in industry or agriculture, have never come from centralized government.
Milton Friedman
Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.
Helen Keller
Science arose from poetry--when times change the two can meet again on a higher level as friends.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Logic is neither a science nor an art, but a dodge.
Benjamin Jowett
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
Albert Einstein
The grand aim of all science is to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest number of hypotheses or axioms.
Albert Einstein
It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.
Albert Einstein
Ethical axioms are found and tested not very differently from the axioms of science. Truth is what stands the test of experience.
Albert Einstein
Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.
Albert Einstein
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.
Albert Einstein
The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It's the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and science. Whoever does not know it can no longer wander, no longer marvel, is as good as dead, and his eyes are dimmed.
Albert Einstein
After a certain high level of technical skill is achieved, science and art tend to coalesce in esthetics, plasticity, and form. The greatest sceintists are always artists as well.
Albert Einstein
When you think about a destination brand, it is really about a science. This is not art, this is about substance and this science of brand mindset has been perfected by thousands of organizations around the world.
Duane Knapp
I want to go to college for computer science.
Andrew Hall
There is more religion in men's science, than there is science in their religion.
Henry David Thoreau
My ongoing investigation is far from an obsession, but an excellent opportunity to provide a platform for applying modern science to a very old, highly visible case in the hope that we might learn something that could help solve modern crimes.
Patricia Cornwell
Science is only as good as you make it.
Robert Summers
The science is still coming in on PFOA, but the concern is there. This is the right thing to do for our health and our environment.
Susan Hazen
All exact science is dominated by the idea of approximation.
Bertrand Russell
Science is a contact sport. People think about it being genteel, but it's a tough game.
Dr. Jeffrey Drazen
The science now is, we aren't worried about teeth being hard or soft. The issue more is the bacteria living in your mouth and how happy they are there.
Mary Hayes
Whenever you do science it's important to know individuals. And that means you have to distinguish one from another, just like we give names to people we have to be able to give names to penguins. And we often do that with bands.
Dee Boersma
Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines.
Bertrand Russell
If you understand the science, there is no magic to this. It is based on sound science and engineering. ... There are no smoke and mirrors here.
John Donoghue
The major obstacle to a religious renewal is the intellectual classes, who are highly influential and tend to view religion as primitive superstition. They believe that science has left atheism as the only respectable intellectual stance.
Robert H. Bork
Honestly, we do it because it's fun. Beyond that, it's also the prestige and getting the public excited about science and technology.
Shawn Jordan
Mystics always hope that science will some day overtake them.
Booth Tarkington
We need to apply the science of communication to the communication of science.
Preston Manning
The New Horizons mission is going somewhere no mission has gone before. This is the frontier of planetary science.
Hal Weaver
I am sure anti stem-cell activists will use this to show that there are problems with this science and that it is not effectively regulated.
David Winickoff
Science is becoming more pervasive and invasive than it has ever been before.
Susan Greenfield
Engineering is a great profession. There is the satisfaction of watching a figment of the imagination emerge through the aid of science to a plan on paper. Then it moves to realisation in stone or metal or energy. Then it brings homes to men or women. Then it elevates the standard of living and adds to the comforts of life. This is the engineer's high privilege.
Herbert Hoover
This is a really special product and it has science to back it up.
Charlie Lanktree
The health effects of the accident were potentially horrific, but when you add them up using validated conclusions from good science, the public health effects were not nearly as substantial as had at first been feared.
Michael Repacholi
Whenever you talk about something 10 years from now, it's always basically going to be guesswork, something approaching science fiction and fantasy more than reality.
Stan Collender
The more thoroughly I conduct scientific research, the more I believe that science excludes atheism.
Lord Kelvin
When we say there is going to be a private research and a public research institute, that is true. But we expect that the science at the two institutes is going to be very collaborative. Our hope is that it is essentially seamless.
Carl Gulbrandsen
These will be computer related courses taught by departments in the College, not by computer science. So an example of that kind of course would be a digital music course or a certain mathematics course.
Thomas Horton
It's not science fiction. The fact is that the world will exist in 100 years, 300 years and one thousand years from now...This makes good sense.
David Akin
The time has come when advertising in some hands has reached the status of a science.
Claude C. Hopkins
The Dover disclaimer brings religion straight into the science classroom.
Alan Leshner
War is the science of destruction.
John Abbott
Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the art of the organized forcing of technological change... Engineers operate at the interface between science and society...
Dean Gordon Brown
It's a Hollywood creation - part actual research, development, and science, and part movie.
Gary Sinise
It was a marriage of art and science. What they told us appeared to be dead-on and we haven't had any reason to question it.
Rob Elkins
If you like science fiction shows, this is a good season ... pod people everywhere this fall.
Daniel Fienberg
This is a true collaboration. I had an idea of how I wanted to see, but I didn't have the knowledge or the background to do it. I'm very interested in restructuring the model of art, science and research. I think the current models need to be erased and we need to start fresh.
Adam Brown
Anthropology was the science that gave her the platform from which she surveyed, scolded and beamed at the world.
Jane Howard
(Research) is so meaningful and rewarding at this point I'm willing to withhold assumptions on where I'll end up. Maybe I'll find God. Maybe I'll find out science isn't for me. Maybe I'll go sit on a mountain and meditate. The ride will be worth it.
Matthew Gervais
Science does have a way of checking itself out. It's harder to get away with a lie in science than it is in life.
Jonathan Moreno
The truth is, marijuana probably isn't going to make you kill people. Most likely isn't going to fund terrorists, but pot makes you feel fine with being bored and it's when you're bored that you should be learning a new skill or some new science or being creative. If you smoke pot you may grow up to find out that you're not good at anything.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone
If you look at what we've got represented now on both the men's and women's side, we have some of the better athletes from Texas. It's not rocket science.
Bill Byrne
The upside/downside risk of storing and hedging is that the market might come down below the price of what you're committed to. That's why [utility companies] don't go out and commit 100%, because they can't predict. The weather ... is not a science.
Chuck Seel
He was convinced that we all would fall in love with science, with understanding how the world works and how the air works, if only we could understand it.
Nicole Dewolf
It's like in mathematics, when dummies present the proof of a formula in a hundred steps and the genius does the same thing in five. It's the exact same process [in science communication]. The dummy takes 12 pages to explain what everybody needs to know, while the great communicator does it in a page and a half.
Randy Olson
The extended journeys taken by the two rovers across the surface of Mars has allowed the science community to continue to uncover discoveries that will enable new investigations of the red planet far into the future.
Mary Cleave
Common sense told us it was going to happen. Quite often we feel we cannot act without hard science. Now we've got some science.
Jim Stevenson
A trainer's personality can be a critical factor in establishing a personal connection with a client. If their personal skills aren't a match for you, it's not an ideal situation. Somebody can know exercise science but be very deficient in interpersonal skills.
Cedric Bryant
It's crystal-clear that the FDA has chosen politics over legitimate science, ... The FDA has failed its public health responsibilities and has failed women.
Karen Pearl
The rovers are both in good shape. Normal science activities are increasing as we continue to get additional power out of the solar panels, primarily because the Martian day is getting longer.
Jim Erickson
I think that not only will an engineering program be good for Marshall, but Marshall will be good for engineering. With the strong liberal arts programs offered at the University in fields like language and science, I think that our program will produce students ready to compete in a global job market.
William Pierson
As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress.
Marcel Proust
The advancement of science and technology alone cannot make humanity happy.
Kazuo Inamori
We know we can finish our science.
Tom Duxbury
He had a passion for democracy, for people to make informed decisions so they can think critically, ... He was rare blend of science and poetry and social consciousness.
Ann Druyan
Sanctuaries are not only unnecessary but also obstruct science. Japan considers the proposal irresponsible.
Minoru Morimoto
It is because I am not using the analytical processes of science to examine the world as it is. I am using scientific data to imagine the world as it could be. I am making maps of possibility.
Lauren Rosenthal
The general public has long been divided into two parts those who think science can do anything, and those who are afraid it will.
Dixie Lee Ray
The long ones were just devastating. Science stopped.
Barbara Thompson
It was built to persuade young people that first-rate science can happen here and that we in Africa can experience the universe with the best of them.
David Laney
I think (the science) is actually ahead of schedule.
Richard Lerner
It is deeply unfair to the children of this state to mislead them about science.
Martha Wise
I think what you're seeing is a flood of companies that have reached a certain level of maturity coming to the market, ... These are companies that have good science, and are very well capitalized and structured.
Paul Kelly
Creationism was consciously trying to model the science on a certain interpretation of Genesis. You don't have anything like that in intelligent design.
William Dembski
Whereas in art nothing worth doing can be done without genius, in science even a very moderate capacity can contribute to a supreme achievement.
Bertrand Russell
Very few theories in science explain everything.
Mark Norell
This will make them more prepared for science research in college. Having a mentorship experience is also going to make them more attractive college candidates.
Jayne Fonash
Just because you went to school and to back-to-school night doesn't mean you know . . . the appropriate set of curriculum for a science course.
Carol Lear
There isn't much to intelligent design. These guys have this really deep-seated intuition that they can look at nature and see a designer at work, but the problem is they've failed to advance it to any kind of science so far.
Randy Olson
Hit the fastball. It's not rocket science. If he keeps hitting fastballs and lays off the other stuff, he'll do well. It really is that simple.
Tom Mccraw
Even as dead bugs they are still influencing these forest ecosystems, ... Science.
Louie Yang
The good news, by and large, is that science has prospered.
Bruce Alberts
Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast over nature.
Jacob Bronowski
The universal and lasting establishment of peace constitutes not merely a part, but the whole final purpose and end of the science of right as viewed within the limits of reason.
Immanuel Kant
We're not seeing any breakthroughs in physics or materials science here.
Peter Diamandis
It basically was an art before. We're just starting to scratch it into a science.
Dennis Conner
The stars are aligning to put Wisconsin on the biotech map, and we'd stack our science at UW-Madison up with anybody in the world.
Mark Bugher
Mathematical science is in my opinion an indivisible whole, an organism whose vitality is conditioned upon the connection of its parts.
David Hilbert
They are two completely different concepts. Creation science says we don't start with the data, we start with the Bible.
John Calvert
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.
Olympia Brown
Music is equally important to math and science.
Alice Richardson
This spacecraft is going to rewrite the science textbooks on Mars.
James Graf
The consumers' trust has been eroded and the EU must restore public confidence in its food science and controls.
David Byrne
It's just pure science, no applied science. There's no practical application. It's just finding out something that wasn't known before.
Anna Hoppe
They were more than double what I expected. It's exciting science, but sobering.
Gregory Asner
Women in general were rare in the science fiction field, and black women, ha.
Steven Barnes
The science on PFOA is still coming in, but the concern is there, so acting now to minimize future releases of PFOA is the right thing to do for our environment and health.
