In any case I hold that there must arise a science of the development of economic forms and relations.
William Stanley Jevons
There are three stages in scientific discovery. First, people deny that it is true, then they deny that it is important; finally they credit the wrong person.
Bill Bryson
There is no certainty in sciences where one of the mathematical sciences cannot be applied, or which are not in relation with these mathematics.
Leonardo da Vinci
The Sun and the science are the same; when they set down, the darkness comes!
Mehmet Murat ildan
When things are in order, if the cause of the orderliness cannot be deduced from the motion of the elements or from the composition of matter, it is quite possibly a cause possessing a mind.
Johannes Kepler
I don't recall any interest in science in particular. It came later in college.
Ellen Ochoa
When science and the Bible differ, science has obviously misinterpreted its data
Henry Morris
Today the network of relationships linking the human race to itself and to the rest of the biosphere is so complex that all aspects affect all others to an extraordinary degree. Someone should be studying the whole system, however crudely that has to be done, because no gluing together of partial studies of a complex nonlinear system can give a good idea of the behavior of the whole.
Murray Gell-Mann
Cookery is become an art, a noble science; cooks are gentlemen.
Robert Burton
Remember that every science is based upon an abstraction. An abstraction is taking a point of view or looking at things under a certain aspect or from a particular angle. All sciences are differentiated by their abstraction.
Fulton J. Sheen
He could hear that musket ball droning about the room, lethally bisecting it again and again like a billiard ball going from one cushion to another. He remained crouching there for a long time before he was able to convince himself that it was quite impossible, physically speaking, scientifically speaking, for a musket ball to go on and on ricocheting like that in a rectangular room; it could only be his imagination. So he forced himself to stand up again and suffered no ill-effects; a small but significant triumph for the scientific way of looking at things.
J.G. Farrell, The Siege of Krish
Science, its imperfections notwithstanding, is the sword in the stone that humanity finally pulled. The question it poses, of universal and orderly materialism, is the most important that can be asked in philosophy and religion.
Edward O. Wilson
Anyone who values truth should stop worshipping reason.
Jonathan Haidt
Because you have seen something doesn't mean you can explain it. Differing interpretations will always abound, even when good minds come to bear. The kernel of indisputable information is a dot in space; interpretations grow out of the desire to make this point a line, to give it direction. The directions in which it can be sent, the uses to which it can be put by a culturally, professionally, and geographically diverse society are almost without limit. The possibilities make good scientists chary.
Barry Lopez
I, on the other hand, am a finished product. I absorb electrical energy directly and utilize it with an almost one hundred percent efficiency. I am composed of strong metal, am continuously conscious, and can stand extremes of environment easily. These are facts which, with the self-evident proposition that no being can create another being superior to itself, smashes your silly hypothesis to nothing.
Isaac Asimov
I regard the afterlife to be a fairy story for people that are afraid of the dark
Stephen Hawking
All good science is art. And all good art is science.
John Fowles
You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion.
L. Ron Hubbard
The President's call for more math and science students is not being heeded by his party's leaders in Congress. They are cutting over 0 billion from student aide while refusing to fully fund No Child Left Behind. Something doesn't add up.
Jim Clyburn
It was just like a digital fixation with cards and math and science and then I started to look at images of great magicians from Houdini down the line.
David Blaine
