Today’s science is tomorrow’s technology (Edward Teller Quotes)

The science of today is the technology of tomorrow (Edward Teller Quotes)
Secrecy in science does not work. Withholding information does more damage to us than to our competitors (Edward Teller Quotes)
Had we not pursued the hydrogen bomb, there is a very real threat that we would now all be speaking Russian. I have no regrets (Edward Teller Quotes)
Today, nothing is unusual about a scientific discovery’s being followed soon after by a technical application: The discovery of electrons led to electronics; fission led to nuclear energy. But before the 1880’s, science played almost no role in the advances of technology. For example, James Watt developed the first efficient steam engine long before science established the equivalence between mechanical heat and energy (Edward Teller Quotes)
Physics is, hopefully, simple. Physicists are not (Edward Teller Quotes)
Secrecy, once accepted, becomes an addiction (Edward Teller Quotes)

One may say that predictions are dangerous particularly for the future. If the danger involved in a prediction is not incurred, no consequence follows and the uncertainty principle is not violated (Edward Teller Quotes)
I claim that relativity and the rest of modern physics is not complicated. It can be explained very simply. It is only unusual or, put another way, it is contrary to common sense (Edward Teller Quotes)
I think that intellectuals who end up in hell will have to read page proofs and check indexes there (Edward Teller Quotes)
I believe in excellence. It is a basic need of every human soul. All of us can be excellent, because, fortunately, we are exceedingly diverse in our ambitions and talents (Edward Teller Quotes)
I believe in evil. It is the property of all those who are certain of truth. Despair and fanaticism are only differing manifestations of evil (Edward Teller Quotes)
I believe in good. It is an ephemeral and elusive quality. It is the center of my beliefs, but it cannot be strengthened by talking about it (Edward Teller Quotes)
I hate doubt, yet I am certain that doubt is the only way to approach anything worth believing in (Edward Teller Quotes)
A fact is a simple statement that everyone believes. It is innocent, unless found guilty. A hypothesis is a novel suggestion that no one wants to believe. It is guilty, until found effective (Edward Teller Quotes)
Really exotic methods of propulsion... will have to be devised to get there. How it will be done, I do not know. Whether it will be done, I am not quite certain. But I would bet it can be done (Edward Teller Quotes)
Science attempts to find logic and simplicity in nature. Mathematics attempts to establish order and simplicity in human thought (Edward Teller Quotes)
It is often claimed that knowledge multiplies so rapidly that nobody can follow it. I believe this is incorrect. At least in science it is not true. The main purpose of science is simplicity and as we understand more things, everything is becoming simpler. This, of course, goes contrary to what everyone accepts (Edward Teller Quotes)
There is a time for scientists and movie stars and those who have flown the atlantic to restrain their opinions lest they be taken more seriously than they should be (Edward Teller Quotes)
The best weapon of a dictatorship is secrecy; the best weapon of a democracy is openness (Edward Teller Quotes)
When you get to the end of all the light you know and it’s time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly (Edward Teller Quotes)
No endeavor that is worthwhile is simple in prospect; if it is right, it will be simple in retrospect (Edward Teller Quotes)
My experience has been in a short 77 years that in the end when you fight for a desperate cause and have good reasons to fight, you usually win (Edward Teller Quotes)
