We have collected the best Science Quotes by famous authors including J. Robert Oppenheimer, Stephen Hawking, Thomas Hobbes, Suzanne Lee, Miguel de Unamuno and many others, we hope that among them you will find the right thought.
Both the man of science and the man of action live always at the edge of mystery, surrounded by it.
J. Robert Oppenheimer
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
Science is the knowledge of consequences, and dependence of one fact upon another.
Thomas Hobbes
I’m not a scientist. What I find interesting about my work is how, as a designer, I sit between science and the consumer and can see both a need and a solution.
Suzanne Lee
Science is a cemetery of dead ideas.
Miguel de Unamuno
Moral science is better occupied when treating of friendship than of justice.
Thomas Aquinas
Research is what I’m doing when I don’t know what I’m doing.
Wernher von Braun
The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion.
Arnold H. Glasow
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
Albert Einstein
Even if you only want to write science fiction, you should also read mysteries, poetry, mainstream literature, history, biography, philosophy, and science.
Walter Jon Williams
In a modern and innovative society, where advancements are plentiful and communication is instantaneous, science and technology are a part of everyday life.
Julie Payette
There is no way that writers can be tamed and rendered civilized or even cured. The only solution known to science is to provide the patient with an isolation room, where he can endure the acute stages in private and where food can be poked in to him with a stick.
Robert A. Heinlein
At Tencent, we may be businessmen, but we are still chasing our IT, our science. We are still striving to create something really cool, trying to create things we couldn’t even imagine without our new technologies. I am still clinging to this enthusiasm.
Ma Huateng
Freedom is the oxygen without which science cannot breathe.
David Sarnoff
Only by ignorance is science threatened.
Frances Arnold
I don’t read ‘chick lit,’ fantasy or science fiction but I’ll give any book a chance if it’s lying there and I’ve got half an hour to kill.
J. K. Rowling
If we wish to make a new world we have the material ready. The first one, too, was made out of chaos.
Robert Quillen
When I was a kid, I figured I would be a physicist when I grew up, and then I would write science fiction on the side. The physicist thing didn’t pan out, but writing science fiction on the side did.
Ted Chiang
Science commits suicide when it adopts a creed.
Thomas Huxley
The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.
Thomas Berger
In science, if you don’t do it, somebody else will. Whereas in art, if Beethoven didn’t compose the ‘Ninth Symphony,’ no one else before or after is going to compose the ‘Ninth Symphony’ that he composed; no one else is going to paint ‘Starry Night’ by van Gogh.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Science is the quintessential international endeavour, and the sterling reputation of the Nobel awards is partly due to the widely-perceived lack of national and other biases in the selection of the laureates.
John O’Keefe
Most people say that it is the intellect which makes a great scientist. They are wrong: it is character.
Albert Einstein
Tact and diplomacy are fine in international relations, in politics, perhaps even in business; in science only one thing matters, and that is the facts.
Hans Eysenck
However far modern science and techniques have fallen short of their inherent possibilities, they have taught mankind at least one lesson; nothing is impossible.
Lewis Mumford
We should provide the meaning of the universe in the meaning of our own lives. So I think science doesn’t necessarily have to get in the way of kind of spiritual fulfillment.
Lawrence M. Krauss
There was no ‘before’ the beginning of our universe, because once upon a time there was no time.
John D. Barrow
The constitution of the universe is total natural law. ‘Natural law,’ we say from the field of science. ‘Will of God,’ we say from the field of religion. It’s the same thing.
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Boxing is the sweet science. You hit and not get hit. There’s no reward for you to hit me more than I hit you other than on the scorecards.
Bernard Hopkins
The challenge of pollution and global warming is no longer the science, or the rate of innovation, but the rate of implementation: We have the clean solutions; now let’s bundle them and install them.
Jens Martin Skibsted
People think of the inventor as a screwball, but no one ever asks the inventor what he thinks of other people.
Charles Kettering
I used to think information was destroyed in black hole. This was my biggest blunder, or at least my biggest blunder in science.
Stephen Hawking
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
A permanent base on Mars would have a number of advantages beyond being a bonanza for planetary science and geology. If, as some evidence suggests, exotic micro-organisms have arisen independently of terrestrial life, studying them could revolutionise biology, medicine and biotechnology.
Paul Davies
Science fiction writers aren’t in the prediction business; they’re in the speculation business, using ‘hasn’t happened’ or ‘hasn’t happened yet’ to create entertaining scenarios that may or may not anticipate future realities.
James Gunn
Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.
Isaac Asimov
Economists should be modest and be aware that they are part of the broader social science community. We need to be pragmatic about the methods we use. When we need to do history, we should do history. When we need to study political science, we should study political science.
Thomas Piketty
Science is built up of facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.
Henri Poincare
In science there is only physics; all the rest is stamp collecting.
Lord Kelvin
It vexes me when they would constrain science by the authority of the Scriptures, and yet do not consider themselves bound to answer reason and experiment.
Galileo Galilei
Drafting is not only an art, but there’s a degree of science as well.
John Dorsey
We must revisit the idea that science is a methodology and not an ontology.
Deepak Chopra
Scientists worldwide agree that the reduction needed to stabilize the climate is actually more like 80 percent.
Donella Meadows
Science and technology revolutionize our lives, but memory, tradition and myth frame our response.
Arthur M. Schlesinger
My friends have said, ‘Wait, you’re pretty, and you sing? What do you mean you’re interested in science?’ I have to just hold my head and go, ‘Do you hear yourself?’ By no means should you ever limit yourself because of what others think or because of their perceptions of what someone looks like in a certain field.
Auli’i Cravalho
Comparing science and religion isn’t like comparing apples and oranges – it’s more like apples and sewing machines.
Jack Horner
Art, like real estate, is half science, half gut. We go to a lot of art fairs. We have two full-time art experts who help me make all the decisions about how to build the corporate and personal collection and what we put in our developments. We don’t let interior designers pick art for us.
Jorge M. Perez
I wasn’t with Joseph, but I believe him. My faith did not come to me through science, and I will not permit so-called science to destroy it.
Thomas S. Monson
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
The progress of science is strewn, like an ancient desert trail, with the bleached skeleton of discarded theories which once seemed to possess eternal life.
Arthur Koestler
Some people would claim that things like love, joy and beauty belong to a different category from science and can’t be described in scientific terms, but I think they can now be explained by the theory of evolution.
Stephen Hawking
When you’re thirsty and it seems that you could drink the entire ocean, that’s faith; when you start to drink and finish only a glass or two, that’s science.
Anton Chekhov
When I was young, I did varied after-school activities – I did art, drama, science, math. I’m not the sporty kind of person, but I did get a certificate on outdoor recreation.
Catriona Gray
Science is curiosity, testing and experimenting.
Venkatraman Ramakrishnan
The work of science is to substitute facts for appearances, and demonstrations for impressions.
John Ruskin
Science, as illustrated by the printing press, the telegraph, the railway, is a double-edged sword. At the same moment that it puts an enormous power in the hands of the good man, it also offers an equal advantage to the evil disposed.
Richard Jefferies
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.
Charles Darwin
It is not a Pandora’s box that science opens; it is, rather, a treasure chest. We, humanity, can choose whether or not to take out the discoveries and use them, and for what purpose.
John Sulston
Everything is fraught with danger. I love technology and I love science. It’s just always all in the way you use it. So there’s no – you can’t really blame anything on the technology. It’s just the way people use it, and it always has been.
Steve Martin
The conflict between religion and science is inherent and (very nearly) zero-sum. The success of science often comes at the expense of religious dogma; the maintenance of religious dogma always comes at the expense of science.
Sam Harris
From now on we live in a world where man has walked on the Moon. It’s not a miracle; we just decided to go.
Jim Lovell
The philosophy of the school was quite simple – the bright boys specialised in Latin, the not so bright in science and the rest managed with geography or the like.
Aaron Klug
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
My whole life has been basically trying to find intelligent students or, you know, highly motivated students and giving them an opportunity to do good science.
James D. Watson
I believe that not everything we humans encounter in our lives can be neatly and convincingly tucked away inside the orderly cabinetry of science.
Mary Roach
When I look upon seamen, men of science and philosophers, man is the wisest of all beings; when I look upon priests and prophets nothing is as contemptible as man.
Diogenes
Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors. Together let us explore the stars, conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap the ocean depths, and encourage the arts and commerce.
John F. Kennedy
Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.
Robert A. Heinlein
In science there are no ‘depths’; there is surface everywhere.
Rudolf Carnap
Science is a differential equation. Religion is a boundary condition.
Alan Turing
You can’t rush the science, but when the science points you in the right direction, then you can start rushing.
Anthony Fauci
Engineering or technology is all about using the power of science to make life better for people, to reduce cost, to improve comfort, to improve productivity, etc.
N. R. Narayana Murthy
I’m concentrating on staying healthy, having peace, being happy, remembering what is important, taking in nature and animals, spending time reading, trying to understand the universe, where science and the spiritual meet.
Joan Jett
In political science, public support doesn’t have a reverse gear. It always goes forward.
Amit Shah
Science is always discovering odd scraps of magical wisdom and making a tremendous fuss about its cleverness.
Aleister Crowley
Advertising: the science of arresting the human intelligence long enough to get money from it.
Stephen Leacock
We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.
Carl Sagan
The characteristic of scientific progress is our knowing that we did not know.
Gaston Bachelard
There is abundant science out there that connects mercury exposure in vaccines to not only autism, but to ASD, to SIDS, to ADD, ADHD, language tics – which is like Tourette Syndrome – OCD, asthma, food allergies, and diabetes.
Robert Kennedy, Jr.
Science fiction writers aren’t fortune tellers. Fortune tellers are fakes.
William Gibson
The man of science is nothing if not a poet gone wrong.
George Meredith
In a few years, all great physical constants will have been approximately estimated, and that the only occupation which will be left to men of science will be to carry these measurements to another place of decimals.
James C. Maxwell
Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.
Mike Pence
It is right that we be concerned with the scientific probity of metaphysics.
Gabriel Marcel
Everything, however complicated – breaking waves, migrating birds, and tropical forests – is made of atoms and obeys the equations of quantum physics. But even if those equations could be solved, they wouldn’t offer the enlightenment that scientists seek. Each science has its own autonomous concepts and laws.
Martin Rees
Acting is not rocket science, but it is an art form. What you are doing is illuminating humanity. Or not.
Viola Davis
Gender consciousness has become involved in almost every intellectual field: history, literature, science, anthropology. There’s been an extraordinary advance.
Clifford Geertz
Neuroscience is by far the most exciting branch of science because the brain is the most fascinating object in the universe. Every human brain is different – the brain makes each human unique and defines who he or she is.
Stanley B. Prusiner
Before I became a film major, I was very heavily into social science, I had done a lot of sociology, anthropology, and I was playing in what I call social psychology, which is sort of an offshoot of anthropology/sociology – looking at a culture as a living organism, why it does what it does.
George Lucas
Religion, as it is understood in the West, does not lead toward progress, and science does not lead toward humanism.
Alija Izetbegovic
The science of the mind can only have for its proper goal the understanding of human nature by every human being, and through its use, brings peace to every human soul.
Alfred Adler
Why do we do basic research? To learn about ourselves.
Walter Gilbert
For science, the end of the evolution struggle is simply represented by ‘survival.’ As for the means to that end, apparently anything goes. Darwinism leaves humanity without a moral compass.
Bruce Lipton
We need to have making, including computer science, shop, etc. as part of the core curriculum from the beginning, not just an optional afterschool thing. Things like First Robotics and all of those great programs need to become mainstream.
Megan Smith
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.
Publilius Syrus
Rockets are cool. There’s no getting around that.
Elon Musk
There is no significant man-made Global Warming underway and the science on which the computer projections of weather chaos are based is badly flawed.
John Coleman
Crucial to science education is hands-on involvement: showing, not just telling; real experiments and field trips and not just ‘virtual reality.’
Martin Rees
The great tragedy of science – the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.
Thomas Huxley
To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country, to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature, and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population.
Thomas Babington Macaulay
I wish that I was one of those kids who grew up saying I always wanted to be an astronaut and was really good at science and math. But that wasn’t really the case. I always liked it, but I never believed I was one of the smart kids.
Emily Calandrelli
The most important thing we can do is inspire young minds and to advance the kind of science, math and technology education that will help youngsters take us to the next phase of space travel.
John Glenn
Fashion is the science of appearance, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
Henry Fielding
A second reason why science cannot replace judgement is the behavior of financial markets.
Martin Feldstein
If you go to planetary science meetings and hear technical talks on Pluto, you will hear experts calling it a planet every day.
Alan Stern
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
I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
James J. Gibson
The accumulation of skill and science which has been directed to diminish the difficulty of producing manufactured goods, has not been beneficial to that country alone in which it is concentrated; distant kingdoms have participated in its advantages.
Charles Babbage
I’ve been programming computers since elementary school, where they taught us, and I stuck with computer science through high school and college.
Masi Oka
Modern science, then, so far from being an enemy of romance, is seen on every hand to be its sympathetic and resourceful friend, its swift and irresistible helper in its serious need, and an indulgent minister to its lighter fancies.
Richard Le Gallienne
We didn’t set out to be educators or even scientists, and we don’t purport that what we do is real science but we’re demonstrating a methodology by which one can engage and satisfy your curiosity.
Adam Savage
I’ve finished 12th standard from Poddar International and enrolled for B.A. in political science in Cambridge University, London. It’s a correspondence course, and I’ll go to London for my exams once a year. That way, I can devote more time to films.
Hansika Motwani
Except in very narrow cases, where there’s breakthrough science that needs patent production, worrying about competitors is a waste of time. If you can’t out iterate someone who is trying to copy you, you’re toast anyway.
Eric Ries
One science only will one genius fit; so vast is art, so narrow human wit.
Alexander Pope
Much public thinking follows a rut. The same thing is true in science. People get stuck and don’t look in other directions.
Charles H. Townes
I am tired of all this sort of thing called science here… We have spent millions in that sort of thing for the last few years, and it is time it should be stopped.
Simon Cameron
It is reasonable to expect the doctor to recognize that science may not have all the answers to problems of health and healing.
Norman Cousins
Man lives for science as well as bread.
William James
All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
Ernest Rutherford
The science tells us that if we fail to reduce global warming pollution, global temperatures will rise to dangerous levels and unleash devastating extreme weather events and accelerate destructive sea level rise.
Frances Beinecke
Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art.
Will Durant
If science fiction is the mythology of modern technology, then its myth is tragic.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Nothing matters but the facts. Without them, the science of criminal investigation is nothing more than a guessing game.
Blake Edwards
Many who have had an opportunity of knowing any more about mathematics confuse it with arithmetic, and consider it an arid science. In reality, however, it is a science which requires a great amount of imagination.
Sofia Kovalevskaya
Most achievements in science are to a certain degree group efforts.
Willard Libby
Science arose from poetry… when times change the two can meet again on a higher level as friends.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
To try to write a grand cosmical drama leads necessarily to myth. To try to let knowledge substitute ignorance in increasingly larger regions of space and time is science.
Hannes Alfven
To understand a science, it is necessary to know its history.
Auguste Comte
Science sent the Hubble telescope out into space, so it could capture light and the absence thereof, from the very beginning of time. And the telescope really did that. So now we know that there was once absolutely nothing, such a perfect nothing that there wasn’t even nothing or once.
Kurt Vonnegut
I’m a science guy. I’m a geek. I love geology and botany and marine science. I thought maybe I’d be a professional guide, or maybe even a park ranger, working for the Department of Fish and Game.
Paul Walker
Whenever anyone says, ‘theoretically,’ they really mean, ‘not really.’
Dave Parnas
Science is nothing but perception.
Plato
For me, science is already fantastical enough. Unlocking the secrets of nature with fundamental physics or cosmology or astrobiology leads you into a wonderland compared with which beliefs in things like alien abductions pale into insignificance.
Paul Davies
Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is, of course, living in a state of sin.
John von Neumann
Science never solves a problem without creating ten more.
George Bernard Shaw
In the sick room, ten cents’ worth of human understanding equals ten dollars’ worth of medical science.
Martin H. Fischer
The more people we can attract to science and technology – men, women, everybody – the more economic opportunity we have as a nation.
Megan Smith
Girls are breaking barriers and boundaries every day in everything from sports and science to business and the creative arts.
Hilary Knight
The origin of life is one of the great outstanding mysteries of science.
Paul Davies
Like all science, psychology is knowledge; and like science again, it is knowledge of a definite thing, the mind.
James Mark Baldwin
He who possesses art and science has religion; he who does not possess them, needs religion.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Being interested in science and engineering is not a male quality.
Emily Calandrelli
Normal science does not aim at novelties of fact or theory and, when successful, finds none.
Thomas Kuhn
There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere.
Isaac Asimov
Yet higher religion, which is only a search for a larger life, is essentially experience and recognized the necessity of experience as its foundation long before science learnt to do so.
Muhammad Iqbal
The word ‘universe’ is obviously not intended to have a plural, but science has evolved in such a way that we need a plural noun for something similar to what we ordinarily call our universe.
Leonard Susskind
I find the attempt to find things out, which scientists are possessed by, to be as human as breathing, or feeding, or sex. And so the science has to be in the novels as science and not just as metaphors.
A. S. Byatt
The strength of self-reliance and self-development is that of science and technology, and the shortcut to implementing the five-year strategy is to give importance and precedence to science and technology.
Kim Jong-un
When I die, I’m leaving my body to science fiction.
Steven Wright
Science has not yet taught us if madness is or is not the sublimity of the intelligence.
Edgar Allan Poe
We read to our kids at bedtime because we want to have literacy, but what are we doing to make sure kids are equally fascinated by science?
Donna Strickland
I am honorary President of the American Humanist Society, having succeeded the late, great science fiction writer Isaac Asimov in that utterly functionless capacity. We Humanists behave as well as we can, without any rewards or punishments in an Afterlife.
Kurt Vonnegut
I did, although I didn’t read from page 1 to page 187 but I read chunks of it. I did a little bit of science when I was in the university so I was able to understand the graphs and pie charts and stuff like that. It was extremely dry.
Liam Neeson
What are we promoting in society? Well-behaved automatons that spew back what they learned in a book. That’s not science. You can get a parrot to do that.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Sometime in the future, science will be able to create realities that we can’t even begin to imagine. As we evolve, we’ll be able to construct other information systems that correspond to other realities, universes based on logic completely different from ours and not based on space and time.
Robert Lanza
The man of science is a poor philosopher.
Albert Einstein
I went through the standard scientific atheist phase when I was about 14. I bought into that package deal of science equals atheism.
Rupert Sheldrake
I graduated from the University of Delaware with a double major in history and political science.
Joe Biden
Chastity is the cement of civilization and progress. Without it there is no stability in society, and without it one cannot attain the Science of Life.
Mary Baker Eddy
People challenge my nerd cred all the time. I just show them the photo of me winning my middle-school science fair, wearing my Casio calculator watch and eyeglasses so big they look like they can see the future.
Aisha Tyler
It is my belief that no matter how advanced man may become in science, technology, systems, and knowledge, he can never improve on the foundational precepts of marriage as the bedrock of social development.
Myles Munroe
The strength of the scientific establishment in any country is related to its general level of education, not only in supplying large numbers of eager minds for further training, but also in ensuring a public opinion that holds science in esteem and approves financial support.
Arthur Lewis
It was hard for me to believe. I would look down and say, ‘This is the moon, this is the moon,’ and I would look up and say, ‘That’s the Earth, that’s the Earth,’ in my head. So, it was science fiction to us even as we were doing it.
Alan Bean
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
What business has science and capitalism got, bringing all these new inventions into the works, before society has produced a generation educated up to using them!
Henrik Ibsen
We look at science as something very elite, which only a few people can learn. That’s just not true. You just have to start early and give kids a foundation. Kids live up, or down, to expectations.
Mae Jemison
Go beyond science, into the region of metaphysics. Real religion is beyond argument. It can only be lived both inwardly and outwardly.
Swami Sivananda
We will always have STEM with us. Some things will drop out of the public eye and will go away, but there will always be science, engineering, and technology. And there will always, always be mathematics.
Katherine Johnson
Perhaps it would be better for science, that all criticism should be avowed.
Charles Babbage
I think science fiction helps us think about possibilities, to speculate – it helps us look at our society from a different perspective. It lets us look at our mores, using science as the backdrop, as the game changer.
Mae Jemison
‘Healing,’ Papa would tell me, ‘is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.’
W. H. Auden
The biggest benefit of Apollo was the inspiration it gave to a growing generation to get into science and aerospace.
Buzz Aldrin
It is easier for a libertarian to attack the science of global warming than to alter one’s core libertarian beliefs.
Al Seckel
Art and science have their meeting point in method.
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
To will what God doth will, that is the only science that gives us any rest.
Francois de Malherbe
In science, we must be interested in things, not in persons.
Marie Curie
We’re not all equal, it’s simply not true. That isn’t science.
James D. Watson
With science fiction I think we are preparing ourselves for contact with them, whoever they may be.
Dwight Schultz
You should never bet against anything in science at odds of more than about 1012 to 1.
Ernest Rutherford
I sort of mind living in a time when most of the literature is terribly personal. I suppose it’s because I grew up on a love of history, philosophy, science and religion, but not to think too much about yourself.
A. S. Byatt
Science, already oppressive with its shocking revelations, will perhaps be the ultimate exterminator of our human species – if separate species we be – for its reserve of unguessed horrors could never be borne by mortal brains if loosed upon the world.
H. P. Lovecraft
Political ideology can corrupt the mind, and science.
E. O. Wilson
Politics is not an exact science. That’s why in school I loved mathematics. Everything in mathematics was clear to me.
Volodymyr Zelensky
You can’t stop technology or science, and it is snowballing quicker than ever. Something’s got to come to a head. How? Who knows? But it will.
Billy Burke
It is not enough to know your craft – you have to have feeling. Science is all very well, but for us imagination is worth far more.
Edouard Manet
There is no stronger case for the motivational power of real science than the discoveries that come from the Hubble Space Telescope as it unravels the mysteries of the universe.
John M. Grunsfeld
We want to answer this classical question, who am I? So I think that most of our works are for art, or whatever we do, including science or religion, tried to answer that question.
Paulo Coelho
Going to rehearsals of school plays got me out of science. It became clear what inspired me and what dampened my spirit. The only other thing I could do at school was trampolining – it didn’t seem to have much future in it.
Tamsin Greig
The Athanasian Creed is to me light and intelligible reading in comparison with much that now passes for science.
Samuel Butler
Those who incline to very strictly utilitarian views may perhaps feel that the peculiar powers of the Analytical Engine bear upon questions of abstract and speculative science rather than upon those involving everyday and ordinary human interests.
Ada Lovelace
In ‘Nier Automata’, the protagonists are androids, not humans, and that’s very common in a Science Fiction story.
Yoko Taro
Forensic science offers great potential, as it draws on almost every discipline and, in doing so, creates widespread opportunity for innovation.
Mark Walport
Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe.
Stephen Hawking
Epic science fiction game, that’s always been on my mind. Post-apocalyptic, ‘Fallout,’ was our first choice. Sci-fi was our second at the time, when we got the ‘Fallout’ license. We were going to do our own post-apocalyptic universe if we didn’t get ‘Fallout.’
Todd Howard
The mineral world is a much more supple and mobile world than could be imagined by the science of the ancients. Vaguely analogous to the metamorphoses of living creatures, there occurs in the most solid rocks, as we now know, perpetual transformation of a mineral species.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
GIS is waking up the world to the power of geography, this science of integration, and has the framework for creating a better future.
Jack Dangermond
I cannot live on myths; somehow, science convinces me more easily. I am prone to lean towards science, ethics, and philosophy rather than myth, religion, and rituals.
Kamal Haasan
I am keen to serve one-sixth of the world’s population where the miracles of science and technology would multiply manifold for betterment of mankind.
Pranav Mistry
Unfortunately the global warming hysteria, as I see it, is driven by politics more than by science.
Freeman Dyson
If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships – the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today – but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.
Isaac Asimov
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
Science is a way of life. Science is a perspective. Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a manner that’s precise, predictive and reliable – a transformation, for those lucky enough to experience it, that is empowering and emotional.
Brian Greene
Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Every known fact in natural science was divined by the presentiment of somebody, before it was actually verified.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.
Edsger Dijkstra
I would say that molecular gastronomy is a field of science. I would – I would say that it’s probably lumped under chemistry, maybe. Because cooking, while it has certainly biology and some physics, it’s mostly chemistry.
Wylie Dufresne
Usually, girls weren’t encouraged to go to college and major in math and science. My high school calculus teacher, Ms. Paz Jensen, made math appealing and motivated me to continue studying it in college.
Ellen Ochoa
I hope I have helped to raise the profile of science and to show that physics is not a mystery but can be understood by ordinary people.
Stephen Hawking
I was not an anthropology student prior to the war. I took it up as part of a personal readjustment following some bewildering experiences as an infantryman and later as a prisoner of war in Dresden, Germany. The science of the Study of Man has been extremely satisfactory from that personal standpoint.
Kurt Vonnegut
Science and mindfulness complement each other in helping people to eat well and maintain their health and well-being.
Thich Nhat Hanh
In the history of science, we often find that the study of some natural phenomenon has been the starting point in the development of a new branch of knowledge.
C. V. Raman
My childhood and adolescence were filled with visiting scientists from both India and abroad, many of whom would stay with us. A life of science struck me as being both interesting and particularly international in its character.
Venkatraman Ramakrishnan
Baking is both an art and a science.
Sherry Yard
A year spent in artificial intelligence is enough to make one believe in God.
Alan Perlis
From a purely positivist point of view, man is the most mysterious and disconcerting of all the objects met with by science.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
When push comes to shove, it ain’t the science that’s going to lift you up – it’s the belief, the spiritual side of life, that’s going to lift you up, no matter what religion you are.
Kirstie Alley
Nothing in the universe can travel at the speed of light, they say, forgetful of the shadow’s speed.
Howard Nemerov
Sporting competitions seem to be what we obsess over, frankly. So if we can put engineering, science, technology into a format of healthy, fun competition, we can attract all sorts of kids that might not see the kind of activity we do as accessible or rewarding.
Dean Kamen
Some day science may have the existence of mankind in power, and the human race can commit suicide by blowing up the world.
Henry Adams
For an object under the eye will appear very different from the same object placed above it; in an inclosed space, very different from the same in an open space.
Vitruvius
Society lives by faith, and develops by science.
Henri Frederic Amiel
The wealthy are always surrounded by hangers-on; science and art are as well.
Anton Chekhov
Geologists have a saying – rocks remember.
Neil Armstrong
One could write a history of science in reverse by assembling the solemn pronouncements of highest authority about what could not be done and could never happen.
Robert A. Heinlein
Almost everything that distinguishes the modern world from earlier centuries is attributable to science, which achieved its most spectacular triumphs in the seventeenth century.
Bertrand Russell
Science is always inquiring.
Thabo Mbeki
Germany has reduced savagery to a science, and this great war for the victorious peace of justice must go on until the German cancer is cut clean out of the world body.
Theodore Roosevelt
When I started secondary school, it was assumed that the girls would do domestic science and the boys would do science, and I wasn’t too happy with that.
Jocelyn Bell Burnell
What’s going to happen when I die? I may be buried, or I may be cremated, I may give my body to science. I haven’t decided yet.
Richard Dawkins
Everything in food is science. The only subjective part is when you eat it.
Alton Brown
When we see the shadow on our images, are we seeing the time 11 minutes ago on Mars? Or are we seeing the time on Mars as observed from Earth now? It’s like time travel problems in science fiction. When is now; when was then?
Bill Nye
In England, an inventor is regarded almost as a crazy man, and in too many instances, invention ends in disappointment and poverty. In America, an inventor is honoured, help is forthcoming, and the exercise of ingenuity, the application of science to the work of man, is there the shortest road to wealth.
Oscar Wilde
The spending in science and technology need to be to increased.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee
But I don’t see myself as a woman in science. I see myself as a scientist.
Donna Strickland
To me, the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows, about building it. Every day, parents and teachers ask me, ‘How do I build grit in kids? What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic? How do I keep them motivated for the long run?’ The honest answer is, I don’t know.
Angela Duckworth
The kitchen’s a laboratory, and everything that happens there has to do with science. It’s biology, chemistry, physics. Yes, there’s history. Yes, there’s artistry. Yes, to all of that. But what happened there, what actually happens to the food is all science.
Alton Brown
An AI utopia is a place where people have income guaranteed because their machines are working for them. Instead, they focus on activities that they want to do, that are personally meaningful like art or, where human creativity still shines, in science.
Oren Etzioni
There is no problem in science that can be solved by a man that cannot be solved by a woman.
Vera Rubin
Chemical synthesis is uniquely positioned at the heart of chemistry, the central science, and its impact on our lives and society is all pervasive.
Elias James Corey
The selfsame procedure which zoology, a branch of the natural sciences, applies to the study of animals, anthropology must apply to the study of man; and by doing so, it enrolls itself as a science in the field of nature.
Maria Montessori
The Nobel prizes memorialize Alfred Nobel’s faith in the contribution that human thought, directed to science and art, can make to human welfare.
Herbert A. Simon
I deeply respect literature and expect to gain insight from a book and to identify emotionally with its characters. I therefore avoid reading suspense novels or science fiction.
A. B. Yehoshua
Nobody climbs mountains for scientific reasons. Science is used to raise money for the expeditions, but you really climb for the hell of it.
Edmund Hillary
Modern science is predicated on ‘truths’ verified through accurate observation and measurements of physical world phenomena.
Bruce Lipton
Science is increasingly answering questions that used to be the province of religion.
Stephen Hawking
Despite what everyone thinks about science fiction, ultimately, at its best, it’s about human beings with human emotions.
Greig Fraser
I learned that despite having years and years of experience in math and computer science and so on, I didn’t really know how to code until I formed a company.
Balaji Srinivasan
One afternoon, on my way to the campus – I was majoring in political science at Nairobi University – a photographer by the name of Peter Beard stopped me in the street and asked me if I’d ever been photographed.
Iman
Science is not, despite how it is often portrayed, about absolute truths. It is about developing an understanding of the world, making predictions, and then testing these predictions.
Brian Schmidt
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
Electrical science has revealed to us the true nature of light, has provided us with innumerable appliances and instruments of precision, and has thereby vastly added to the exactness of our knowledge.
Nikola Tesla
Books are the money of Literature, but only the counters of Science.
Thomas Huxley
A successful society is characterized by a rising living standard for its population, increasing investment in factories and basic infrastructure, and the generation of additional surplus, which is invested in generating new discoveries in science and technology.
Robert Trout
The art world is a very prissy little thing over in the corner, while the major cultural forces are being determined by techno science.
Natalie Jeremijenko
Facts are the air of scientists. Without them you can never fly.
Linus Pauling
Science is the captain, and practice the soldiers.
Leonardo da Vinci
The most obvious characteristic of science is its application: the fact that, as a consequence of science, one has a power to do things. And the effect this power has had need hardly be mentioned. The whole industrial revolution would almost have been impossible without the development of science.
Richard P. Feynman
Whenever I think of how much pleasure I have interviewing scientists, I remember that they’re having the real fun in actually being able to do the science.
Alan Alda
We know from science that nothing in the universe exists as an isolated or independent entity.
Margaret J. Wheatley
Ever since the Industrial Revolution, investments in science and technology have proved to be reliable engines of economic growth. If homegrown interest in those fields is not regenerated soon, the comfortable lifestyle to which Americans have become accustomed will draw to a rapid close.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
We live in this world in order always to learn industriously and to enlighten each other by means of discussion and to strive vigorously to promote the progress of science and the fine arts.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Understanding truth is the primary objective of science, not doing good for the world.
Ivar Giaever
Vaccines and antibiotics have made many infectious diseases a thing of the past; we’ve come to expect that public health and modern science can conquer all microbes. But nature is a formidable adversary.
Tom Frieden
No science is immune to the infection of politics and the corruption of power.
Jacob Bronowski
Questions have arisen about the policing of science. Who is responsible for the policing? My answer is: all of us.
Serge Lang
I didn’t invent forensic science and medicine. I just was one of the first people to recognize how interesting it is.
Patricia Cornwell
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.
Paul Valery
Blitzscaling is what you do when you need to grow really, really quickly. It’s the science and art of rapidly building out a company to serve a large and usually global market, with the goal of becoming the first mover at scale. This is high-impact entrepreneurship.
Reid Hoffman
Transhumanism is the ethics and science of using things like biological and genetic engineering to transform our bodies and make us a more powerful species.
Dan Brown
Science, as everyone knows, is responsible, moderate, unsentimental, and otherwise good.
Noam Chomsky
Life science is an investment for the future.
Tasuku Honjo
Bad religion is arrogant, self-righteous, dogmatic and intolerant. And so is bad science. But unlike religious fundamentalists, scientific fundamentalists do not realize that their opinions are based on faith. They think they know the truth.
Rupert Sheldrake
Disagreements are one of the fundamental positive aspects of science.
Anthony Fauci
There is no science in creativity. If you don’t give yourself room to fail, you won’t innovate.
Bob Iger
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.
Albert Einstein
People who believe in science have a hard time believing in ghosts and the supernatural.
Sushmita Sen
Politicians should read science fiction, not westerns and detective stories.
Arthur C. Clarke
Nothing is less predictable than the development of an active scientific field.
Charles Francis Richter
Traditional science assumes, for the most part, that an objective observer independent reality exists; the universe, stars, galaxies, sun, moon and earth would still be there if no one was looking.
Deepak Chopra
If an elderly but distinguished scientist says that something is possible, he is almost certainly right; but if he says that it is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
Arthur C. Clarke
Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world.
Louis Pasteur
Science is exploration. The fundamental nature of exploration is that we don’t know what’s there. We can guess and hope and aim to find out certain things, but we have to expect surprises.
Charles H. Townes
You can be creative in anything – in math, science, engineering, philosophy – as much as you can in music or in painting or in dance.
Ken Robinson
Truth is of no practical value to mankind save as it affects terrestrial phenomena, hence the discoveries of science should be concealed or glossed over wherever they conflict with orthodoxy.
H. P. Lovecraft
I remember in 1967, when there was that terrible fire on NASA’s Apollo 1 rocket that killed three astronauts, my father made pure oxygen and we lit this tiny cup and burned it. Suddenly, we had an unbelievable jet and a fire. You just could see exactly what had happened.
Jack W. Szostak
In this era of globalisation, I believe that the only way to push the Philippines forward is to focus our energy on improving English, mathematics, science, and technology.
Lucio Tan
Observation is a passive science, experimentation an active science.
Claude Bernard
A lot of what the ‘Culture’ is about is a reaction to all the science fiction I was reading in my very early teens.
Iain Banks
Curiosity – the rover and the concept – is what science is all about: the quest to reveal the unknown.
Ahmed Zewail
God may exist, but science can explain the universe without the need for a creator.
Stephen Hawking
Borrowing knowledge of reality from all sources, taking the best from every study, Science of Mind brings together the highest enlightenment of the ages.
Ernest Holmes
Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within.
Stephen Jay Gould
I’d be perfectly happy with a mathematically precise description of how time began. I see science and religion as being two completely different things. I don’t see science as relevant to the question of whether or not there’s a God.
Neil Turok
What is the intersection between technology, art and science? Curiosity and wonder, because it drives us to explore, because we’re surrounded by things we can’t see.
Louie Schwartzberg
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.
Marie Curie
People think that computer science is the art of geniuses but the actual reality is the opposite, just many people doing things that build on eachother, like a wall of mini stones.
Donald Knuth
Science is the key to our future, and if you don’t believe in science, then you’re holding everybody back.
Bill Nye
Women are both talented and innovative thinkers and tend to use computer science as a tool to solve larger problems.
Kimberly Bryant
I consider myself a nerd. I love science and technology.
Alexis Ren
In praising science, it does not follow that we must adopt the very poor philosophies which scientific men have constructed. In philosophy they have much more to learn than to teach.
William Inge
The very nature of science is discoveries, and the best of those discoveries are the ones you don’t expect.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Science ignores the spiritual realm because it is not amenable to scientific analysis. As importantly, the predictive success of Newtonian theory, emphasizing the primacy of a physical Universe, made the existence of spirit and God an extraneous hypothesis that offered no explanatory principles needed by science.
Bruce Lipton
It was my dream to come to Oxford and study political science.
Stormzy
The basic science is very well established; it is well understood that global warming is due to greenhouse gases. What is uncertain is projections about specifics in the next few decades, by how much will the climate change.
Mario J. Molina
I dislike literary jargon and never use it. Criticism has only one function and that is to help readers read and understand literature. It is not a science, it is an aid to art.
Anne Stevenson
The whole idea of how people will learn computer science, I believe will be through game development.
David Baszucki
Any sufficiently badly-written science is indistinguishable from magic.
Aaron Allston
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 has not been successful by making up explanations of things that fit with the current social fabric.
Kary Mullis
To begin with, we put the proposition: pure phenomenology is the science of pure consciousness.
Edmund Husserl
Jurisdictions across the U.S. are snapping up algorithms as tools to help judges make bail and bond decisions. They’re being sold as race- and gender-neutral assessments that allow judges to use science in determining whether someone will behave if released from jail pending trial.
John Kennedy
My model for Kirk was Horatio Hornblower from the C.S. Forester sea stories. Shatner was open-minded about science fiction and a marvelous choice.
Gene Roddenberry
Science may provide the most useful way to organize empirical, reproducible data, but its power to do so is predicated on its inability to grasp the most central aspects of human life: hope, fear, love, hate, beauty, envy, honor, weakness, striving, suffering, virtue.
Paul Kalanithi
Anthropology was the science that gave her the platform from which she surveyed, scolded and beamed at the world.
Jane Howard
Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science.
Edwin Powell Hubble
This world, after all our science and sciences, is still a miracle; wonderful, inscrutable, magical and more, to whosoever will think of it.
Thomas Dekker
Anybody who has been seriously engaged in 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.’
Max Planck
There are worlds of experience beyond the world of the aggressive man, beyond history, and beyond science. The moods and qualities of nature and the revelations of great art are equally difficult to define; we can grasp them only in the depths of our perceptive spirit.
Ansel Adams
I’m basically a dinosaur. I don’t use e-mail. But I do recognize the importance of science and the resulting possibilities.
Bernard Marcus
The ‘science’ for which the United States is respected has nothing to do with the unscientific and baseless theory of evolution.
Ray Comfort
The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.
Edward Teller
The science of booby-trapping has taken a good deal of the fun out of following hot on the enemy’s heels.
A. J. Liebling
The relevance of Marxism to science is that it removes it from its imagined position of complete detachment and shows it as a part, but a critically important part, of economy and social development.
John Desmond Bernal
Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one’s living at it.
Albert Einstein
Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Man has to awaken to wonder – and so perhaps do peoples. Science is a way of sending him to sleep again.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
I hate facts. I always say the chief end of man is to form general propositions – adding that no general proposition is worth a damn.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
The science of psychology has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side… It has revealed to us much about man’s shortcomings, his illnesses, his sins, but little about his potentialities, his virtues, his achievable aspirations, or his psychological health.
Abraham Maslow
Science is a first-rate piece of furniture for a man’s upper chamber, if he has common sense on the ground-floor. But if a man hasn’t got plenty of good common sense, the more science he has, the worse for his patient.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
Incorporating science, technology, engineering, analytics and medicine to athletes’ training and development not just at elite level but basing it right at the grassroots level is important.
Abhinav Bindra
I had no talent for science. What was infinitely worse: all my fraternity brothers were engineers.
Kurt Vonnegut
People are saying I don’t need science, I have everything, but everything is based on science.
Rolf-Dieter Heuer
I’ve lost my faith in science.
Bette Davis
I believe the universe is governed by the laws of science. The laws may have been decreed by God, but God does not intervene to break the laws.
Stephen Hawking
I’m fascinated by the business of belief, obviously, because it’s so ever present with humanity anyway. And, you know, when you have science, which constantly talks of proofs, you have religion, which constantly talks of beliefs and faith and so on.
John Hurt
Science is magic that works.
Kurt Vonnegut
The thing I have discovered about working with personal finance is that the good news is that it is not rocket science. Personal finance is about 80 percent behavior. It is only about 20 percent head knowledge.
Dave Ramsey
Science is not a thing. It’s a verb. It’s a way of thinking about things. It’s a way of looking for natural explanations for all phenomena.
Michael Shermer
Pitching is both an art and a science.
Max Scherzer
Carl Sagan spoke fluently between biology and geology and astrophysics and physics. If you move fluently across those boundaries, you realize that science is everywhere; science is not something you can step around or sweep under the rug.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If you look in ‘The Science of Getting Rich,’ you see no reference whatsoever to the ‘law of attraction.’
Esther Hicks
I love weird science. I learned in an article in ‘National Geographic’ that there are trillions of bacteria in our guts that help us digest food. These are non-human creatures.
Will Hobbs
When I die, I’m gonna leave my body to science fiction.
Steven Wright
We have not given science too big a place in our education, but we have made a perilous mistake in giving it too great a preponderance in method in every other branch of study.
Woodrow Wilson
Economics is not an exact science. It’s a combination of an art and elements of science. And that’s almost the first and last lesson to be learned about economics: that in my judgment, we are not converging toward exactitude, but we’re improving our data bases and our ways of reasoning about them.
Paul Samuelson
The capacity of the female mind for studies of the highest order cannot be doubted, having been sufficiently illustrated by its works of genius, of erudition, and of science.
James Madison
On the ordinary view of each species having been independently created, we gain no scientific explanation.
Charles Darwin
I don’t want to give advice to people about their religious beliefs, but I do think that it’s not smart to bet against the power of science to figure out the natural world. It used to be, a thousand years ago, that if you wanted to explain why the moon moved through the sky, you needed to invoke God.
Sean M. Carroll
Biochemistry is the science of life. All our life processes – walking, talking, moving, feeding – are essentially chemical reactions. So biochemistry is actually the chemistry of life, and it’s supremely interesting.
Aaron Ciechanover
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
Isaac Asimov
He who would do good to another must do it in Minute Particulars: general Good is the plea of the scoundrel, hypocrite, and flatterer, for Art and Science cannot exist but in minutely organized Particulars.
William Blake
Science is not only a disciple of reason but, also, one of romance and passion.
Stephen Hawking
Science moves with the spirit of an adventure characterized both by youthful arrogance and by the belief that the truth, once found, would be simple as well as pretty.
James D. Watson
Science fiction is something I never understood.
John Waters
In the seventeenth century, the science of medicine had not wholly cut asunder from astrology and necromancy; and the trusting Christian still believed in some occult influences, chiefly planetary, which governed not only his crops but his health and life.
Alice Morse Earle
When it comes to art and science, people don’t like a lot of either. Instead of being open to it, they’re closed off about it.
Tim Burton
Millions of people were inspired by the Apollo Program. I was five years old when I watched Apollo 11 unfold on television, and without any doubt it was a big contributor to my passions for science, engineering, and exploration.
Jeff Bezos
Political liberty, the peace of a nation, and science itself are gifts for which Fate demands a heavy tax in blood!
Honore de Balzac
I grew up reading science fiction.
Jeff Bezos
We don’t regard any scientific theory as the absolute truth.
Kenneth R. Miller
Science in the modern world has many uses; its chief use, however, is to provide long words to cover the errors of the rich.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
If co-operation, is thus the lifeblood of science and technology, it is similarly vital to society as a whole.
Arthur Compton
I was raised on comic books, and I love science fiction.
Mayim Bialik
There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the latter ignorance.
Hippocrates
Mythology and science both extend the scope of human beings. Like science and technology, mythology, as we shall see, is not about opting out of this world, but about enabling us to live more intensely within it.
Karen Armstrong
Statistics is the grammar of science.
Karl Pearson
Science knows only one commandment – contribute to science.
Bertolt Brecht
There’s no question that as science, knowledge and technology advance, that we will attempt to do more significant things. And there’s no question that we will always have to temper those things with ethics.
Ben Carson
Pursue science because it is knowledge, because it broadens our horizons. There is so much more to be discovered.
Gerhard Herzberg
The credit which the apparent conformity with recognized scientific standards can gain for seemingly simple but false theories may, as the present instance shows, have grave consequences.
Friedrich August von Hayek
Every science consists in the coordination of facts; if the different observations were entirely isolated, there would be no science.
Auguste Comte
The media need superheroes in science just as in every sphere of life, but there is really a continuous range of abilities with no clear dividing line.
Stephen Hawking
I’ve always been interested in medicine and was pleased when my brother became a doctor. But after thinking seriously about that field, I realized that what intrigued me was not the science, not the chemistry or biology of medicine, but the narrative – the story of each patient, each illness.
Lois Lowry
Science provides an understanding of a universal experience. Arts provide a universal understanding of a personal experience.
Mae Jemison
I am among those who think that science has great beauty.
Marie Curie
Food is art and science. So, you take something out, you have to work with the recipe to make sure that you’re providing delicious food with cleaner labels.
Denise Morrison
Chocolate milk has everything I need in a drink: the carbs, the protein, and the electrolytes. It’s even backed by science, showing how you’re able to recover. I can speak from experience, this is what I drink.
Al Horford
Science fiction and fantasy is a kind of literature that embodies the highest aspirations of the human race.
Harlan Ellison
Philosophy of science without history of science is empty; history of science without philosophy of science is blind.
Imre Lakatos
Religion and science are the two conjugated faces or phases of one and the same complete act of knowledge – the only one which can embrace the past and future of evolution and so contemplate, measure and fulfil them.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
I am humbled and excited by new opportunities for me to support and share the amazing work NASA is doing to help us travel farther into the solar system and work with the next generation of science and technology leaders.
Scott Kelly
As a scientist, I don’t believe science will ever discover whether God exists. Nor do I believe religion will ever prove it.
Alan Lightman
Creativity is essential to particle physics, cosmology, and to mathematics, and to other fields of science, just as it is to its more widely acknowledged beneficiaries – the arts and humanities.
Lisa Randall
Years of science fiction have produced a mindset that it is human destiny to expand from Earth, to the Moon, to Mars, to the stars.
Barney Oliver
Mathematical science shows what is. It is the language of unseen relations between things. But to use and apply that language, we must be able fully to appreciate, to feel, to seize the unseen, the unconscious.
Ada Lovelace
The Universal Zulu Nation stands to acknowledge wisdom, understanding, freedom, justice, and equality, peace, unity, love, and having fun, work, overcoming the negative through the positive, science, mathematics, faith, facts, and the wonders of God, whether we call him Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh, or Jah.
Afrika Bambaataa
I always knew I wanted to be a technologist, so I went to Duke and got a degree in computer science and electrical engineering. Really, I thought my goal in life was to be an inventor, a problem solver, so I thought I needed a Ph.D. to be good at inventions, but it turns out that you don’t.
Aaron Patzer
Touch a scientist and you touch a child.
Ray Bradbury
I am a great fan of science, but I cannot do a quadratic equation.
Terry Pratchett
Dream research is a wonderful field. All you do is sleep for a living.
Stephen LaBerge
Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided.
Paracelsus
The march of science and technology does not imply growing intellectual complexity in the lives of most people. It often means the opposite.
Thomas Sowell
I felt that chess… is a science in the form of a game… I consider myself a scientist. I wanted to be treated like a scientist.
Bobby Fischer
Science fiction is filled with Martians and space travel to other planets, and things like that.
Margaret Atwood
Anthropology demands the open-mindedness with which one must look and listen, record in astonishment and wonder that which one would not have been able to guess.
Margaret Mead
There are no such things as applied sciences, only applications of science.
Louis Pasteur
Human relations are built on feeling, not on reason or knowledge. And feeling is not an exact science; like all spiritual qualities, it has the vagueness of greatness about it.
Amelia Barr
I don’t join the New Atheists. So, for example, I wouldn’t have the arrogance to lecture some mother who hopes to see her dying child in Heaven – that’s none of my business, ultimately. I won’t lecture her on the philosophy of science.
Noam Chomsky
Theology is a science of mind applied to God.
Henry Ward Beecher
We’ve arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology.
Carl Sagan
I feel like the thing we can do is celebrate people doing great work and create more cultural momentum and awareness that this is an important thing in the world. So when the next economic crisis hits and people are talking about where to cut from the budget, science isn’t the thing.
Mark Zuckerberg
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
Freedom is absolutely necessary for the progress in science and the liberal arts.
Baruch Spinoza
It’s very strange writing science fiction in a world that moves as fast as ours does.
Daniel Keys Moran
The method of political science is the interpretation of life; its instrument is insight, a nice understanding of subtle, unformulated conditions.
Woodrow Wilson
Wandering around the web is like living in a world in which every doorway is actually one of those science fiction devices which deposit you in a completely different part of the world when you walk through them. In fact, it isn’t like it, it is it.
Douglas Adams
Electrical science has disclosed to us the more intimate relation existing between widely different forces and phenomena and has thus led us to a more complete comprehension of Nature and its many manifestations to our senses.
Nikola Tesla
The major thing is to view biology as an information science.
Leroy Hood
The true teachers and educators are not those who have learned pedagogy as the science of dealing with children, but those in whom pedagogy has awakened through understanding the human being.
Rudolf Steiner
I hope to continue to inspire our nation’s youth to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math so they, too, may reach for the stars.
Ellen Ochoa
I actually consider myself as totally privileged to be able to serve science and medicine in a global fashion, because science and medicine know no boundaries.
Magdi Yacoub
Evolution is the fundamental idea in all of life science – in all of biology.
Bill Nye
I am critical of modernity giving science and technology a blank check as if it were the fountain of all truth. That is not true. And I think I may have introduced a word which has now caught on quite a bit, scientism. Science is good. It simply reports a discovery.
Huston Smith
The facts of science are real enough, and so are the techniques that scientists use, and so are the technologies based on them. But the belief system that governs conventional scientific thinking is an act of faith.
Rupert Sheldrake
Before I lost my voice, it was slurred, so only those close to me could understand, but with the computer voice, I found I could give popular lectures. I enjoy communicating science. It is important that the public understands basic science, if they are not to leave vital decisions to others.
Stephen Hawking
Logic is neither a science nor an art, but a dodge.
Benjamin Jowett
Weapons of mass destruction aren’t pulled out of a black hat like a white rabbit at a magic show. They’re produced in factories. There’s science and technology involved. They’re not produced in a hole in the ground or in a basement.
Scott Ritter
The difference between science and the arts is not that they are different sides of the same coin even, or even different parts of the same continuum, but rather, they are manifestations of the same thing. The arts and sciences are avatars of human creativity.
Mae Jemison
Please don’t make the mistake of thinking that ‘Oryx and Crake’ is anti-science. Science is a way of knowing, and a tool. Like all ways of knowing and tools, it can be turned to bad uses. And it can be bought and sold, and it often is. But it is not in itself bad. Like electricity, it’s neutral.
Margaret Atwood
Many of the mainstream agricultural scientists, especially at the agricultural schools, but at all of our major universities, are tied into all sorts of contractual relationships and consulting relationships with the life science companies.
Jeremy Rifkin
Nothing is less important than which fork you use. Etiquette is the science of living. It embraces everything. It is ethics. It is honor.
Emily Post
When I was in 7th grade, we were all given an exam. It was science and math, and the boys who did well were skipped ahead so that when they got to be juniors or seniors in high school they would be able to go to the local community college and take calculus and physics there. And I wasn’t skipped ahead.
Eileen Pollack
Computer science teaches and nurtures the type of thinking that 21st century citizens will need to address 21st century issues. We cannot know with any certainty what those challenges will be, but we can arm our students with the tools needed to address them.
Eric Adams
Science doesn’t care, by and large, what the answers are. It’s only interested in getting the right answer. And journalism should be very much that way.
Scott Pelley
As a practicing neurologist, I place central importance in applying current science to the notion of disease prevention.
David Perlmutter
Biology is the science. Evolution is the concept that makes biology unique.
Jared Diamond
I needed a lot of the good things that church provided. But as I grew older, it became increasingly hard for me to rationalize the importance of church in my life with the beliefs that it required that were at odds with modern science.
J. D. Vance
We are living in a science fiction world.
George Takei
Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life.
Immanuel Kant
We have found that where science has progressed the farthest, the mind has but regained from nature that which the mind put into nature.
Arthur Eddington
We should be increasing research and development into our fossil fuel program.
Tim Holden
Science is simply common sense at its best, that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic.
Thomas Huxley
When I was in high school, I fell under the spell of that crazy idea that if you’re interested in the arts, you can’t be interested in science.
Alan Alda
It’s become a running joke among the public, and liberals have lost all credibility when it comes to climate science because their arguments have become so ridiculous and so obviously disconnected from reality.
Sonny Perdue
Science and technology are going to be the basis for many of the solutions to social problems.
Frances Arnold
My preparation is about precision. It is a science.
Conor McGregor
Take young researchers, put them together in virtual seclusion, give them an unprecedented degree of freedom and turn up the pressure by fostering competitiveness.
James D. Watson
When I investigate and when I discover that the forces of the heavens and the planets are within ourselves, then truly I seem to be living among the gods.
Leon Battista Alberti
I don’t think immortality is necessarily the key to understanding the world. You have to be careful with what you think you’re achieving. I’m all for science discovering amazing and fantastic things about our world, but I think the motivations behind it are slightly askew.
Reggie Watts
There’s a lot of work to do – not only the science but maintaining the facilities up here. When you go down from a crew of six to a crew of three, obviously you’ve lost half of your crew time available, so it does have an impact. But it’s an impact we plan for.
Scott Kelly
Vexillography is a very big word! Vexillography is really the high science and art and understanding of flags and their history – the academic word for flag making and heraldry.
Gilbert Baker
There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition.
Rod Serling
Science fiction was never my thing. I have no interest in it. So I don’t think I could successfully pull off being on a project like that without really losing my mind.
Denis Leary
I am not a scientist. I am, rather, an impresario of scientists.
Jacques Yves Cousteau
There will one day spring from the brain of science a machine or force so fearful in its potentialities, so absolutely terrifying, that even man, the fighter, who will dare torture and death in order to inflict torture and death, will be appalled, and so abandon war forever.
Thomas A. Edison
Science fiction is not quirky anymore; we live in a futuristic world now.
Bonnie Hammer
It’s not rocket science. It’s social science.
Clement Mok
Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn’t be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn’t know it so it goes on flying anyway.
Mary Kay Ash
As scientists, we step on the shoulders of science, building on the work that has come before us – aiming to inspire a new generation of young scientists to continue once we are gone.
Stephen Hawking
I follow science and common sense. Science says you should eat a variety of foods and eat more fruits and vegetables – I do that.
Maye Musk
Science never makes things that do not have to do with what we feel, by which I mean what we want and what we fear.
Margaret Atwood
Don’t confuse hypothesis and theory. The former is a possible explanation; the latter, the correct one. The establishment of theory is the very purpose of science.
Martin H. Fischer
Science is imagination in the service of the verifiable truth, and that service is indeed communal. It cannot be rigidly planned. Rather, it requires freedom and courage and the plural contributions of many different kinds of people who must maintain their individuality while giving to the group.
Gerald Edelman
Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology.
Rebecca West
There are no shortcuts in evolution.
Louis D. Brandeis
The space station here is a magical place and an incredible science facility.
Scott Kelly
Science does not permit exceptions.
Claude Bernard
It is the function of science to discover the existence of a general reign of order in nature and to find the causes governing this order. And this refers in equal measure to the relations of man – social and political – and to the entire universe as a whole.
Dmitri Mendeleev
Therefore, the good of man must be the end of the science of politics.
Aristotle
I think horror or science fiction is another way of telling a modern myth – it’s like Ancient Greece; it’s like kids couldn’t wait for the next ‘Orpheus’ story, the next ‘Jason and the Argonauts.’
Reg E. Cathey
For reasons probably related to the popular vision of Albert Einstein and, also, the threat posed by black holes in comic books and science fiction, our gravitational wave discoveries have had an amazing public impact.
Rainer Weiss
Unlike scientism, science in the true sense of the word is open to unbiased investigation of any existing phenomena.
Stanislav Grof
Virtual reality, all the A.I. work we do, all the robotics work we do – we’re as close to realizing science fiction as it gets.
Jensen Huang
My history is pretty different from the history of most professors. I was a high school dropout. I dropped out and became a science fiction writer.
Daniel Goldstein
Let’s say intelligence is your ability to compose poetry, symphonies, do art, math and science. Chimps can’t do any of that, yet we share 99 percent DNA. Everything that we are, that distinguishes us from chimps, emerges from that one-percent difference.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The last thing you ever want to do is extend the period of frailty and disability and make people unhealthy for a longer time period. So lifespan extension in and of itself should not be the goal of medicine, nor should it be the goal of public health, nor should it be the goal of aging science.
S. Jay Olshansky
If you’ve read a lot of vintage science fiction, as I have at one time or another in my life, you can’t help but realise how wrong we get it. I have gotten it wrong more times than I’ve gotten it right. But I knew that when I started; I knew that before I wrote a word of science fiction.
William Gibson
There’s no doubt that inequality destabilizes societies. I think the social science evidence on that front is crystal clear.
Jordan Peterson
One must take things lightly, after all, we are entertainers and acting isn’t rocket science. The trick is, not to take criticism to the heart or analyse things too much.
Neha Dhupia
Globalisation means many other countries are asserting themselves and trying to take over leadership. Please don’t ask Americans to let others assume the leadership of human exploration. We can do wonderful science on the Moon, and wonderful commercial things. Then we can pack up and move on to Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
We live in a world economically, socially, and culturally dependent on science not only functioning well, but being wisely applied.
Harry Kroto
Imagination is the Discovering Faculty, pre-eminently. It is that which penetrates into the unseen worlds around us, the worlds of Science.
Ada Lovelace
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
Rocket science is tough, and rockets have a way of failing.
Sally Ride
The nineteenth century believed in science but the twentieth century does not.
Gertrude Stein
Great moments in science: Einstein discovers that time is actually money.
Gary Larson
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
Music is not math. It’s science. You keep mixing the stuff up until it blows up on you, or it becomes this incredible potion.
Bruno Mars
Science is like a love affair with nature; an elusive, tantalising mistress. It has all the turbulence, twists and turns of romantic love, but that’s part of the game.
Vilayanur S. Ramachandran
I like to learn. That’s an art and a science.
Katherine Johnson
Every science has for its basis a system of principles as fixed and unalterable as those by which the universe is regulated and governed. Man cannot make principles; he can only discover them.
Thomas Paine
To pursue science is not to disparage the things of the spirit. In fact, to pursue science rightly is to furnish the framework on which the spirit may rise.
Vannevar Bush
The commonality between science and art is in trying to see profoundly – to develop strategies of seeing and showing.
Edward Tufte
Adventure upon all the tickets in the lottery, and you lose for certain; and the greater the number of your tickets the nearer your approach to this certainty.
Adam Smith
And, that’s what I truly believe that we’re doing when we’re advancing scientific knowledge is we’re someday making the world better. Not only for our children, but for all people after that.
Duane G. Carey
In Israel, a land lacking in natural resources, we learned to appreciate our greatest national advantage: our minds. Through creativity and innovation, we transformed barren deserts into flourishing fields and pioneered new frontiers in science and technology.
Shimon Peres
Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in.
Stephen Hawking
If you believe in Cinderella, and if you can suspend your disbelief at midnight, then you can believe in the interdisciplinary midnight, the ‘in-betweens,’ and become fortunately entangled, moving from art to science.
Neri Oxman
Music is an intrinsic part of life; therefore, it is important to transport different forms of artistic expression, science, and mathematics into compositions.
Ludovico Einaudi
I’ve actually started a number of businesses in my career. So I’m 28 currently, but when I was about 16, I started building Websites, and that’s how I put myself through school. I went to Duke with a degree in electrical engineering, computer science, computer engineering, and then to Princeton.
Aaron Patzer
I’m comfortable reading science and dissecting it and discerning the difference between junk science and real science.
Robert Kennedy, Jr.
If I can get some student interested in science, if I can show members of the general public what’s going on up there in the space program, then my job’s been done.
Christa McAuliffe
Science will explain how but not why. It talks about what is, not what ought to be. Science is descriptive, not prescriptive; it can tell us about causes but it cannot tell us about purposes. Indeed, science disavows purposes.
Jonathan Sacks
I’m such a stereotypical female learner in that I love social studies and love literature, and I always struggled with math and science.
Randi Weingarten
The human brain is an incredible pattern-matching machine.
Jeff Bezos
Science is the systematic classification of experience.
George Henry Lewes
Innovations in science and technology are the engines of the 21st-century economy; if you care about the wealth and health of your nation tomorrow, then you’d better rethink how you allocate taxes to fund science. The federal budget needs to recognize this.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Iraq was home of the Abbasid Caliphate, a golden age when the Muslim world was at the forefront of math, science and medicine.
Richard Engel
I have found far greater enthusiasm for science in America than here in Britain. There is more enthusiasm for everything in America.
Stephen Hawking
Schools ought to teach students to challenge secular ideologies masquerading as science in the classroom.
Nancy Pearcey
Follow your curiosity, and have the courage to meet the challenge. That’s where science starts, in my opinion.
Tasuku Honjo
My father left me with his love of Jewish studies and cultural life. To this very day, along with several physicians and scientist colleagues, I take regular periodical lessons taught by a Rabbinical scholar on how the Jewish law views moral and ethical problems related to modern medicine and science.
Aaron Ciechanover
When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a room full of dukes.
W. H. Auden
The existence of life beyond Earth is an ancient human concern. Over the years, however, attempts to understand humanity’s place in the cosmos through science often got hijacked by wishful thinking or fabricated tales.
Jill Tarter
Being a Christian, I’m eager to introduce people to Jesus. I just don’t think I should do it in the science classroom.
Kenneth R. Miller
Most people don’t realize it, because they’re invisible, but microbes make up about a half of the Earth’s biomass, whereas all animals only make up about one one-thousandth of all the biomass.
Craig Venter
Truth in science can be defined as the working hypothesis best suited to open the way to the next better one.
Konrad Lorenz
Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
Robert Green Ingersoll
Science and fun cannot be separated.
Roger Penrose
Science fiction is what we point to when we say it.
Damon Knight
Science is the highest personification of the nation because that nation will remain the first which carries the furthest the works of thought and intelligence.
Louis Pasteur
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.
Jean Rostand
Science has not yet mastered prophecy. We predict too much for the next year and yet far too little for the next 10.
Neil Armstrong
Design and technology should be the subject where mathematical brainboxes and science whizzkids turn their bright ideas into useful products.
James Dyson
The more thoroughly I conduct scientific research, the more I believe that science excludes atheism.
Lord Kelvin
Travel stories teach geography; insect stories lead the child into natural science; and so on. The teacher, in short, can use reading to introduce her pupils to the most varied subjects; and the moment they have been thus started, they can go on to any limit guided by the single passion for reading.
Maria Montessori
Architecture is a science arising out of many other sciences, and adorned with much and varied learning; by the help of which a judgment is formed of those works which are the result of other arts.
Vitruvius
Psychology is the science of the intellects, characters and behavior of animals including man.
Edward Thorndike
There is nothing which can better deserve your patronage, than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness.
George Washington
I first read science fiction in the old British Chum annual when I was about 12 years old.
A. E. van Vogt
The increase of scientific knowledge lies not only in the occasional milestones of science, but in the efforts of the very large body of men who with love and devotion observe and study nature.
Polykarp Kusch
Pure phenomenology claims to be the science of pure phenomena. This concept of the phenomenon, which was developed under various names as early as the eighteenth century without being clarified, is what we shall have to deal with first of all.
Edmund Husserl
Just as the science and art of agriculture depend upon chemistry and botany, so the art of education depends upon physiology and psychology.
Edward Thorndike
My research career has been devoted to understanding human decision-making and problem-solving processes. The pursuit of this goal has led me into the fields of political science, economics, cognitive psychology, computer science and philosophy of science, among others.
Herbert A. Simon
Part of what made the Macintosh great was that the people working on it were musicians, poets, and artists, and zoologists, and historians. They also happened to be the best computer scientists in the world. But if it hadn’t been computer science, these people would have been doing amazing things in other fields.
Steve Jobs
I’m a geophysicist and all my earth science books when I was a student, I had to give the wrong answer to get an A. We used to ridicule continental drift. It was something we laughed at. We learned of Marshall Kay’s geosynclinal cycle, which is a bunch of crap.
Robert Ballard
My desire to be a physician had a lot to do with that sense of medicine as a ministry of healing, not just a science. And not even just a science and an art, but also a calling, also a ministry.
Abraham Verghese
Global Warming: It is a hoax. It is bad science. It is high-jacking public policy. It is the greatest scam in history.
John Coleman
Science means constantly walking a tightrope between blind faith and curiosity; between expertise and creativity; between bias and openness; between experience and epiphany; between ambition and passion; and between arrogance and conviction – in short, between an old today and a new tomorrow.
Heinrich Rohrer
