Microscopes and telescopes really confuse our minds  (Telescopes Quotes) Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes  (Telescopes Quotes) You are that vast thing that you see far, far off with great telescopes  (Telescopes Quotes) Astronomers are obsessed with building larger and larger telescopes. There are two promises that we make with bigger telescopes: that they can see fainter things and that they see more detail. But it’s been really hard to follow through on that second promise because of atmospheric distortion.  (Telescopes Quotes) Pride makes us long for a solution to things - a solution, a purpose, a final cause; but the better telescopes become, the more stars appear  (Telescopes Quotes) Pride makes us long for a solution to things ” a solution, a purpose, a final cause; but the better telescopes become, the more stars appear.  (Telescopes Quotes) I don’t have any hobbies because my working job is my hobby. What I do is I spend my whole time looking through telescopes and having brain scans and buying books about various different ideas and I just sit around, that’s my life.  (Telescopes Quotes) The planet Mars -- crimson and bright, filling our telescopes with vague intimations of almost-familiar landforms -- has long formed a celestial tabula rasa on which we have inscribed our planeto-logical theories, utopian fantasies, and fears of alien invasion or ecological ruin.  (Telescopes Quotes) No sign of purpose can be detected in any part of the vast universe disclosed by our most powerful telescopes  (Telescopes Quotes) Computer science has as much to do with computers as astronomy has to do with telescopes  (Telescopes Quotes) I have a fine lot of telescopes. I have one with which I can see the Mountains in the Moon  (Telescopes Quotes) The eyes of a man are of no use without the observing power. Telescopes and microscopes are cunning contrivances, but they cannot see of themselves  (Telescopes Quotes) Eventually, we reach the utmost limits of our telescopes. There, we measure shadows and search among ghostly errors of measurement for landmarks that are scarcely more substantial  (Telescopes Quotes) We find them smaller and fainter, in constantly increasing numbers, and we know that we are reaching into space, farther and farther, until, with the faintest nebulae that can be detected with the greatest telescopes, we arrive at the frontier of the known universe  (Telescopes Quotes) The further and further we look out with our telescopes and the further and further we look in with our microscopes, the larger and larger and smaller and smaller the universe becomes in order to escape the investigation because we are the universe looking at itself  (Telescopes Quotes) If aliens are watching us through telescopes, they’re going to think the dogs are the leaders of the planet. If you see two life forms, one of them’s making a poop, the other one’s carrying it for him, who would you assume is in charge?  (Telescopes Quotes) His eyes are blue, and blue eyes up close are a celestial phenomenon: nebulae as seen through telescopes, the light of unnamed stars diffused through dusts and elements and endlessness. Layers of light. Blue eyes are starlight  (Telescopes Quotes) I have tried to improve telescopes and practiced continually to see with them. These instruments have play’d me so many tricks that I have at last found them out in many of their humours  (Telescopes Quotes) I don’t have any hobbies because my working job is my hobby. What I do is I spend my whole time looking through telescopes and having brain scans and buying books about various different ideas and I just sit around, that’s my life  (Telescopes Quotes) Poetry is an act of distillation. It takes contingency samples, is selective. It telescopes time. It focuses what most often floods past us in a polite blur  (Telescopes Quotes) If a photographic plate under the center of a lens focused on the heavens is exposed for hours, it comes to reveal stars so far away that even the most powerful telescopes fail to reveal them to the naked eye. In a similar way, time and concentration allow the intellect to perceive a ray of light in the darkness of the most complex problem  (Telescopes Quotes) Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes, biology is about microscopes or chemistry is about beakers and test tubes. Science is not about tools. It is about how we use them, and what we find out when we do  (Telescopes Quotes) Sometimes I really regret that I did not live in those times when there was still so much that was new; to be sure enough much is yet unknown, but I do not think that it will be possible to discover anything easily nowadays that would lead us to revise our entire outlook as radically as was possible in the days when telescopes and microscopes were still new  (Telescopes Quotes) If there is no solace in the fruits of our research, there is at least some consolation in the research itself. Men and women are not content to comfort themselves with tales of gods and giants, or to confine their thoughts to the daily affairs of life; they also build telescopes and satellites and accelerators and sit at their desks for endless hours working out the meaning of the data they gather  (Telescopes Quotes) We do a lot of looking: we look through lenses, telescopes, television tubes... Our looking is perfected every day, but we see less and less  (Telescopes Quotes) On certain occasions, the eyes of the mind can supply the want of the most powerful telescopes, and lead to astronomical discoveries of the highest importance  (Telescopes Quotes) I was interested in telescopes and the way they worked because I had an intense desire to see what things looked like, so I learned how to use telescopes and find things in the sky  (Telescopes Quotes) I guess the two things I was most interested in were telescopes and steam engines. My father was an engineer on a threshing rig steam engine and I loved the machinery  (Telescopes Quotes) For a long time, weve worked on detecting planets with whatever was at hand, making use of existing small telescopes or even amateur telescopes. Its time to move on to the next stage  (Telescopes Quotes)
