Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “Thinking is seeing.... Every human science is based on deduction, which is a slow process of seeing by which we work up from the effect to the cause; or, in a wider sense, all poetry like every work of art proceeds from a swift vision of things.”
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “Today the function of the artist is to bring imagination to science and science to imagination, where they meet, in the myth.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
