Science Quotes

The dualistic philosophy reigned supreme in Europe, dominating the development of Western science.

Whence came I, whither go I? Science cannot tell us a word about why music delights us, of why and how an old song can move us to tears. Science is reticent too when it is a question of the great Unity – the One of Parmenides – of which we all somehow form part, to which we belong. The most popular name for it in our time is God – with a capital ‘G’. Whence come I and whither go I? That is the great unfathomable question, the same for every one of us. Science has no answer to it.
Erwin Schrodinger

Neil Postman
-

Mother Teresa
-
Science fiction is never about the future, in the same way history is rarely about the past: they're both parable formats for examining or commenting on the present.
