Text Quotes
A scientist should be the happiest of men. Not that science isn’t serious; but as everyone knows, being serious is one way of being happy, just as being gay is one way of being unhappy  (Science Quotes) All our knowledge merely helps us to die a more painful death than the animals that know nothing. A day will come when science will turn upon its error and no longer hesitate to shorten our woes. A day will come when it will dare and act with certainty; when life, grown wiser, will depart silently at its hour, knowing that it has reached its term  (Science Quotes) All science is full of statements where you put your best face on your ignorance, where you say:... we know awfully little about this, but more or less irrespective of the stuff we don’t know about, we can make certain useful deductions  (Science Quotes) Art includes everything that stimulates the desire to live; science, everything that sharpens the desire to know. Art, even the most disinterested, the most disembodied, is the auxiliary of life  (Science Quotes) Facts, and facts alone, are the foundation of science... When one devotes oneself to experimental research it is in order to augment the sum of known facts, or to discover their mutual relations  (Science Quotes) Men will gather knowledge no matter what the consequences. Science will go on whether we are pessimistic or optimistic, as I am. More interesting discoveries than we can imagine will be made, and I am awaiting them, full of curiosity and enthusiasm  (Science Quotes) Science has a simple faith, which transcends utility. Nearly all men of science, all men of learning for that matter, and men of simple ways too, have it in some form and in some degree. It is the faith that it is the privilege of man to learn to understand, and that this is his mission. If we abandon that mission under stress we shall abandon it forever, for stress will not cease. Knowledge for the sake of understanding, not merely to prevail, that is the essence of our being. None can define its limits, or set its ultimate boundaries  (Science Quotes) Science is the one human activity that is truly progressive. The body of positive knowledge is transmitted from generation to generation  (Science Quotes) The life and soul of science is its practical application, and just as the great advances in mathematics have been made through the desire of discovering the solution of problems which were of a highly practical kind in mathematical science, so in physical science many of the greatest advances that have been made from the beginning of the world to the present time have been made in the earnest desire to turn the knowledge of the properties of matter to some purpose useful to mankind  (Science Quotes) The purpose of science is to develop, without prejudice or preconception of any kind, a knowledge of the facts, the laws, and the processes of nature. The even more important task of religion, on the other hand, is to develop the consciences, the ideals, and the aspirations of mankind  (Science Quotes) The real value of science is in the getting, and those who have tasted the pleasure of discovery alone know what science is. A problem solved is dead. A world without problems to be solved would be devoid of science  (Science Quotes) The whole value of science consists in the power which it confers upon us of applying to one object the knowledge acquired from like objects; and it is only so far, therefore, as we can discover and register resemblances that we can turn our observations to account  (Science Quotes) The classification of facts, the recognition of their sequence and relative significance is the function of science, and the habit of forming a judgment upon these facts unbiassed by personal feeling is characteristic of what may be termed the scientific frame of mind  (Science Quotes) A few drops of science will often disinfect an entire barrel full of ignorance and prejudice  (Science Quotes) Fed on the dry husks of facts, the human heart has a hidden want which science cannot supply  (Science Quotes) History, if viewed as a repository for more than anecdote or chronology, could produce a decisive transformation in the image of science by which we are now possessed  (Science Quotes) I suspect that the changes that have taken place during the last century in the average man’s fundamental beliefs, in his philosophy, in his concept of religion. in his whole world outlook, are greater than the changes that occurred during the preceding four thousand years all put together... because of science and its applications to human life, for these have bloomed in my time as no one in history had had ever dreamed could be possible  (Science Quotes) It is curious how often erroneous theories have had a beneficial effect for particular branches of science  (Science Quotes) It is of great advantage to the student of any subject to read the original memoirs on that subject, for science is always most completely assimilated when it is in the nascent state  (Science Quotes) It was like a new world opened to me, the world of science, which I was at last permitted to know in all liberty  (Science Quotes) Myths and science fulfill a similar function: they both provide human beings with a representation of the world and of the forces that are supposed to govern it. They both fix the limits of what is considered as possible  (Science Quotes) Philosophy is regarded by many as inseparable from speculation... Philosophy has proceeded from speculation to science  (Science Quotes) Poetry, mythology, and religion represent the world as man would like to have it, while science represents the world as he gradually comes to discover it  (Science Quotes) Science appears to us with a very different aspect after we have found out that it is not in lecture rooms only, and by means of the electric light projected on a screen, that we may witness physical phenomena, but that we may find illustrations of the highest doctrines of science in games and gymnastics, in travelling by land and by water, in storms of the air and of the sea, and wherever there is matter in motion  (Science Quotes) Science attempts to find logic and simplicity in nature. Mathematics attempts to establish order and simplicity in human thought  (Science Quotes) Science cannot describe individuals, but only types. If human societies cannot be classified, they must remain inaccessible to scientific description  (Science Quotes) Science has explored the microcosmos and the macrocosmos; we have a good sense of the lay of the land. The great unexplored frontier is complexity  (Science Quotes) Science is an enterprise that can only flourish if it puts the truth ahead of nationality, ethnicity, class and color  (Science Quotes) Science itself, therefore, may be regarded as a minimal problem, consisting of the completest possible presentment of facts with the least possible expenditure of thought  (Science Quotes) Science makes people reach selflessly for truth and objectivity; it teaches people to accept reality, with wonder and admiration, not to mention the deep awe and joy that the natural order of things brings to the true scientist  (Science Quotes)
