Science quotes page 2

Truth in science can be defined as the working hypothesis best suited to open the way to
the next better one.
Konrad Lorenz

Science at best is not wisdom; it is knowledge. Wisdom is knowledge tempered with
judgement.
Lord Ritchie-Calder

Science cannot answer the deepest questions. As soon as you ask why there is something
instead of nothing, you have gone beyond science. I find it quite improbable that such order
came out of chaos. There has to be some organizing principle. God to me is the explanation
for the miracle of existence - why there is something instead of nothing.
Allan R. Sandage

The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.
Neil deGrasse Tyson

Science and religion are not at odds. Science is simply too young to understand.
Dan Brown

The truth is that our race survived ignorance; it is our scientific genius that will do us in.
Stephen Vizinczey

Science has made us gods even before we are worthy of being men.
Jean Rostand

It is not the business of science to inherit the earth, but to inherit the moral imagination;
because without that, man and beliefs and science will perish together.
Jacob Bronowski

Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science
crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill.
Barbara W. Tuchman
