Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “You are all fundamentalists with a top dressing of science. That is why you are the stupidest of conservatives and reactionists in politics and the most bigoted of obstructionists in science itself. When it comes to getting a move on you are all of the same opinion: stop it, flog it, hang it, dynamite it, stamp it out.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “One science only will one genius fit;
    So vast is art, so narrow human wit.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “Science has nothing to be ashamed of even in the ruins of Nagasaki. The shame is theirs who appeal to other values than the human imaginative values which science has evolved.”
    —Jacob Bronowski (1908–1974)
