Science Quotes
-
I discovered how science is truly a universal language, one that forges new connections among individuals and opens the mind to ideas that go far beyond the classroom.
Ahmed Zewail
-
The free market is the epitome of life itself. This is something that all scientists recognise because science itself operates on free market lines.
John Sulston
-
Theology is a science of mind applied to God.
Henry Ward Beecher

Science rushes headlong, without selectivity, without "taste," at whatever is knowable, in the blind desire to know all at any cost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
Srinivasa Ramanujan was the strangest man in all of mathematics, probably in the entire history of science. He has been compared to a bursting supernova, illuminating the darkest, most profound corners of mathematics, before being tragically struck down by tuberculosis at the age of 33, like Riemann before him. Working in total isolation from the main currents of his field, he was able to rederive 100 years' worth of Western mathematics on his own. The tragedy of his life is that much of his work was wasted rediscovering known mathematics.
Michio Kaku

He broke through the barriers of the skies.
William Herschel
-
For St. Thomas Aquinas the problem was rather different. It was a question of how to integrate philosophy into sacred science, not only without allowing either the one or the other to suffer essentially thereby, but to the greater benefit of both. In order to achieve this result, he had to integrate a science of reason with a science of revelation without corrupting at the same time both the purity of reason and the purity of revelation.
Etienne Gilson
-
As soon as an Analytical Engine exists, it will necessarily guide the future course of the science. Whenever any result is sought by its aid, the question will then arise - by what course of calculation can these results be arrived at by the machine in the shortest time?
Charles Babbage
-

G. H. Hardy
-
Science can and should inform debate about abortion and the law. But science does not resolve questions of moral value and moral choice.
Blase J. Cupich
-
It’s time to rescue 'intelligent design' from the politics of religion. There are too many riddles not yet answered by either biology or the Bible, and by asking them honestly, without foregone conclusions, science could take a huge leap forward.
Deepak Chopra
