CP Snow Quotes

If you pursue happiness you never find it Picture Quote #1

Two polar groups: at one pole we have the literary intellectuals, at the other scientists, and as the most representative, the physical scientists. Between the two a gulf of mutual incomprehension Picture Quote #1

I was searching for something a little more than a dashing metaphor, a good deal less than a cultural map: and for those purposes the two cultures is about right Picture Quote #1

I was moving among two groups... who had almost ceased to communicate at all, who in intellectual, moral, and psychological climate had so little in common that... one might have crossed the ocean Picture Quote #1

When you think of the long and gloomy history of man, you will find more hideous crimes have been committed in the name of obedience than have ever been committed in the name of rebellion Picture Quote #1

I want a man who knows something about himself. And is appalled. And has to forgive himself to get along Picture Quote #1

I think, on the whole that scientists make slightly better husbands and fathers than most of us, and I admire them for it Picture Quote #1

The scientific process has two motives: one is to understand the natural world, the other is to control it Picture Quote #1

It takes a very strong head to keep secrets for years and not go slightly mad. It isn’t wise to be advised by anyone slightly mad Picture Quote #1

A scientist has to be neutral in his search for the truth, but he cannot be neutral as to the use of that truth when found. If you know more than other people, you have more responsibility, rather than less Picture Quote #1

For the first time I saw a medley of haphazard facts fall into line and order. All the jumbles and recipes and hotchpotch of the inorganic chemistry of my boyhood seemed to fit into the scheme before my eyes-as though one were standing beside a jungle and it suddenly transformed itself into a Dutch garden Picture Quote #1

Zeroth law: You must play the game First law: You can’t win Second law: You can’t break even Third law: You can’t quit the game Picture Quote #1

Advertising degrades the people it appeals to; it deprives them of their will to choose Picture Quote #1

The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase: if you pursue happiness you’ll never find it Picture Quote #1
