Science Museums

Famous quotes containing the words science and/or museums:

    The science of constructing a commonwealth, or renovating it, or reforming it, is, like every other experimental science, not to be taught a priori. Nor is it a short experience that can instruct us in that practical science, because the real effects of moral causes are not always immediate.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    In museums and palaces we are alternate radicals and conservatives.
    Henry James (1843–1816)
