Quotes

  • Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge. Knowledge in the sense of what we have found out about how to manipulate the world, has led us to the realization that we need to know more, it has led us to the realization that we don't know. The great discoveries have been made because we have been able to change the world in various ways and find out what happens. - Richard Feynman
  • The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. - Albert Einstein
  • The science of today is the technology of tomorrow. - Edward Teller
