Science Quotes
"Every aspect of Nature reveals a deep mystery and touches our sense of wonder and awe.

That's just the same fraction as those African Americans, almost all of them slaves, who were illiterate just before the Civil War-when severe penalties were in force for anyone who taught a slave to read. Of course there's a degree of arbitrariness about any determination of illiteracy, whether it applies to language or to science. But anything like 95 percent illiteracy is extremely serious."

7
"I dig science fiction, though it was never really my thing."
7
"Hence, even in the domain of natural science the aid of the experimental method becomes indispensable whenever the problem set is the analysis of transient and impermanent phenomena, and not merely the observation of persistent and relatively constant objects."

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty-a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show."

There are wide variations about the mean."
