The world cries out for global rules that respect the achievements of science.
The radical novelty of modern science lies precisely in the rejection of the belief, which is at the heart of all popular religion, that the forces which move the stars and atoms are contingent upon the preferences of the human heart.
I object to a legal approach when settling questions of science or scientific behavior.
It's actually very beautiful when you can't conceive on your own, you can actually go to the doctors and with science you can create a child.
Science fiction is fantasy about issues of science. Science fiction is a subset of fantasy. Fantasy predated it by several millennia. The '30s to the '50s were the golden age of science fiction - this was because, to a large degree, it was at this point that technology and science had exposed its potential without revealing the limitations.
We live in a science fictional world with things like cloning and face transplants, and things seem to be getting stranger and stranger.
In the spirit of science, there really is no such thing as a 'failed experiment.' Any test that yields valid data is a valid test.
My views as an individual ought not to be confused with my views as a scientist - the minute you try to mingle God and science, you get into trouble. Metaphysics has its place, and science has its place; don't mix the two.
Science fiction writers, I am sorry to say, really do not know anything. We can't talk about science, because our knowledge of it is limited and unofficial, and usually our fiction is dreadful.
And finally, no matter how good the science gets, there are problems that inevitably depend on judgement, on art, on a feel for financial markets.
Carl took on the military-industrial complex. He campaigned around the world for an end to the production of weapons of mass destruction. To him it was a perversion of science.
Science has fulfilled her function when she has ascertained and enunciated truth.
Science is organized common sense where many a beautiful theory was killed by an ugly fact.
I'm fond of science fiction. But not all science fiction. I like science fiction where there's a scientific lesson, for example - when the science fiction book changes one thing but leaves the rest of science intact and explores the consequences of that. That's actually very valuable.
I did grow up with a really big interest in math and science; I liked it.
My people are going to learn the principles of democracy, the dictates of truth and the teachings of science. Superstition must go.
We have changing weather patterns, and we have climate change. This is the science. I hope that my party will come to be comfortable with this because we have to operate in the realm of knowledge and science.
Science without respect for human life is degrading to us all and reflects a hollow and deceptive philosophy, a philosophy that we as a people should never condone.
We had an erector set, and I was an avid fan of Popular Mechanics and Popular Science magazines.
I'm crazy about Grant: his character, his nature, his science in fighting and everything else. But I don't like the idea that he never accepted the blame for anything, always found someone else to blame for any mistake that was ever made, including blaming Prentiss for Shiloh.
Life isn't a science. We make it up as we go.
Psychology more than any other science has had its pseudo-scientific no less than its scientific period.
I wasn't with Joseph, but I believe him. My faith did not come to me through science, and I will not permit so-called science to destroy it.
Science is difficult and slow no matter who you are. The hours are long, and the glorious 'aha' days come only very infrequently. You have to keep believing that if you put in the hours, those days will indeed come!
There's a science fiction project we really want to make, but it's very expensive. Hopefully it will happen.
Our science has become terrible, our research dangerous, our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.
Science is to do research because of the target's fascinating and interesting characteristics.
One of the things that I love to do is travel around the world and look at archaeological sites. Because archaeology gives us an opportunity to study past civilizations, and see where they succeeded and where they failed. Use science to, you know, work backwards and say, 'Well, really, what were they thinking?'
The worst state of affairs is when science begins to concern itself with art.
Just as the science and art of agriculture depend upon chemistry and botany, so the art of education depends upon physiology and psychology.
Some of the FDA's own scientists have charged that politics, not science, is behind the FDA's actions.
And if we must educate our poets and artists in science, we must educate our masters, labour and capital, in art.
You see, I became kind of a drop-out in science after I came back to America.
Truth in science is always determined from observational facts.
The roles of art, morality, religion, political faith, science itself are not to repair organic exhaustion nor to provide sound functioning of the organs. All this supraphysical life is built and expanded not because of the demands of the cosmic environment but because of the demands of the social environment.
Science is the knowledge of consequences, and dependence of one fact upon another.
