Text Quotes
I think philosophers can do things akin to theoretical scientists, in that, having read about empirical data, they too can think of what hypotheses and theories might account for that data. So there’s a continuity between philosophy and science in that way. (Scientists Quotes)
The only technology that can ‘see’ beneath the ground is radar imagery. But satellite imagery also allows scientists to map short- and long-term changes to the Earth’s surface. Buried archaeological remains affect the overlying vegetation, soils and even water in different ways, depending on the landscapes you’re examining (Scientists Quotes)
America has not always been kind to its artists and scholars. Somehow the scientists always seem to get the penthouse while the arts and humanities get the basement (Scientists Quotes)
We are in the ordinary position of scientists of having to be content with piecemeal improvements: we can make several things clearer, but we cannot make anything clear (Scientists Quotes)
Scientists should always state the opinions upon which their facts are based (Scientists Quotes)
Developmental scientists like me explore the basic science of learning by designing controlled experiments (Scientists Quotes)
Scientists and philosophers tend to treat knowledge, imagination and love as if they were all very separate parts of human nature. But when it comes to children, all three are deeply entwined. Children learn the truth by imagining all the ways the world could be, and testing those possibilities. (Scientists Quotes)
I appeal to my fellow scientists to remember their responsibility to humanity (Scientists Quotes)
Isn’t it marvelous how those scientists know the names of all those stars (Scientists Quotes)
Despite all the progress climate scientists have made in understanding the risks we run by loading the atmosphere with CO2, the world is still as addicted to fossil fuels as ever. (Scientists Quotes)
If we are honest - and scientists have to be - we must admit that religion is a jumble of false assertions, with no basis in reality. (Scientists Quotes)
Anthropologists are a connecting link between poets and scientists; though their field-work among primitive peoples has often made them forget the language of science (Scientists Quotes)
The stumbling way in which even the ablest of the scientists in every generation have had to fight through thickets of erroneous observations, misleading generalizations, inadequate formulation, and unconscious prejudice is rarely appreciated by those who obtain their scientific knowledge from textbooks (Scientists Quotes)
I think that it's important for scientists to explain their work, particularly in cosmology. This now answers many questions once asked of religion (Scientists Quotes)
When scientists do discover the center of the universe don't be disappointed that it's not you (Scientists Quotes)
Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe (Scientists Quotes)
Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. and you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow (Scientists Quotes)
The scientists often have more unfettered imaginations than current philosophers do. Relativity theory came as a complete surprise to philosophers, and so did quantum mechanics, and so did other things (Scientists Quotes)
The conjuror or con man is a very good provider of information. He supplies lots of data, by inference or direct statement, but it’s false data. Scientists aren’t used to that scenario. An electron or a galaxy is not capricious, nor deceptive; but a human can be either or both (Scientists Quotes)
You must not blame us scientists for the use which war technicians have put our discoveries (Scientists Quotes)
Most people like to believe something is or is not true. Great scientists tolerate ambiguity very well. They believe the theory enough to go ahead; they doubt it enough to notice the errors and faults so they can step forward and create the new replacement theory. If you believe too much you’ll never notice the flaws; if you doubt too much you won’t get started. It requires a lovely balance (Scientists Quotes)
The problem we are faced with is that the meteorological establishment and the global warming lobby research bodies which receive large funding are now apparently so corrupted by the largesse they receive that the scientists in them have sold their integrity (Scientists Quotes)
I can go into a lab and fool the rear ends off any group of scientists (Scientists Quotes)
Spiritual power is a force which history clearly teaches has been the greatest force in the development of men. Ye. we have been merely playing with it and never have really studied it as we have the physical forces. Some day people will learn that material things do not bring happiness, and are of little use in making people creative and powerful. Then the scientists of the world will turn their laboratories over to the study of spiritual forces which have hardly been scratched (Scientists Quotes)
It is the responsibility of scientists never to suppress knowledge, no matter how awkward that knowledge is, no matter how it may bother those in power; we are not smart enough to decide which pieces of knowledge are permissible, and which are not (Scientists Quotes)
Critics, mathematicians, scientists and busybodies want to classify everything, marking the boundaries and limits... In art, there is room for all possibilities (Scientists Quotes)
Those who dwell, as scientists or laymen, among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life. Whatever the vexations or concerns of their personal lives, their thoughts can find paths that lead to inner contentment and to renewed excitement in living (Scientists Quotes)
Scientists tracking mirror neurons noticed that a monkey will get excited not just when holding a banana, but also when seeing someone else holding a banana (Scientists Quotes)
There are plenty of dead scientists I admire, but I can’t think of any living ones. This is probably because it is only in retrospect that one can see who made the important contributions (Scientists Quotes)
The development of science is basically a social phenomenon, dependent on hard work and mutual support of many scientists and on the societies in which they live (Scientists Quotes)
