Scientific Knowledge

Famous quotes containing the words scientific and/or knowledge:

    I philosophize from the vantage point only of our own
    provincial conceptual scheme and scientific epoch, true; but I know no better.

    “... Knowledge he shall unwind
    Through victories of the mind,
    Till, clambering at the cradle-side,
    He dreams himself his mother’s pride,
    All knowledge lost in trance
    Of sweeter ignorance.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
