The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.  Albert Einstein quotes A good conscience is a continual feast. Robert Burton quotes Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey cage. Henry Louis Mencken quotes A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education. George Bernard Shaw quotes Politicians should read science fiction, not westerns and detective stories. Arthur C. Clarke quotes In science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not to the man to whom the idea first occurs. William Osler quotes If any human being earnestly desires to push on to new discoveries instead of just retaining and using the old; to win victories over Nature as a worker rather than over hostile critics as a disputant; to attain, in fact, clear and demonstrative knowlegde instead of attractive and probable theory; we invite him as a true son of Science to join our ranks. Francis Bacon, Sr. quotes Things are distinct not in their essence but in their appearance; in other words, in their relation to one to whom they appear. This is art, the truth of which is not in substance or logic, but in expression. Abstract truth may belong to science and metaphysics, but the world of reality belongs to art. Rabindranath Tagore quotes Science is the century-old endeavour to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thorough-going an association as possible. To put it boldly, it is the attempt at a posterior reconstruction of existen ce by the process of conceptualisation. Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgements of all kinds remain necessary. Albert Einstein quotes It is the great parent of science and of virtue: and that a nation will be great in both, always in proportion as it is free. Thomas Jefferson quotes |
