Everything that can be invented, has been invented. – 1899.
~~~~~~~
Everywhere you look in science, the harder it becomes to understand the universe without God.
~~~~~~~
Extinguished theologians lie about the cradle of every science, as the strangled snakes besides that of Hercules.
~~~~~~~
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
~~~~~~~
Facts are not science – as the dictionary is not literature.
~~~~~~~
Facts are the air of scientists. Without them you can never fly.
~~~~~~~
Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within.

For a smart material to be able to send out a more complex signal it needs to be nonlinear. If you hit a tuning fork twice as hard it will ring twice as loud but still at the same frequency. That’s a linear response. If you hit a person twice as hard they’re unlikely just to shout twice as loud. That property lets you learn more about the person than the tuning fork. – When Things Start to Think, 1999.
~~~~~~~
For every fact there is an infinity of hypotheses.
~~~~~~~
For NASA, space is still a high priority.
~~~~~~~
For science is . . . like virtue, its own exceeding great reward.

For undemocratic reasons and for motives not of State, they arrive at their conclusions — largely inarticulate. Being void of self-expression they confide their views to none; but sometimes in a smoking room, one learns why things were done.

FORTRAN –‘the infantile disorder’–, by now nearly 20 years old, is hopelessly inadequate for whatever computer application you have in mind today: it is now too clumsy, too risky, and too expensive to use. PL/I –‘the fatal disease’– belongs more to the problem set than to the solution set. It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration. The use of COBOL cripples the mind; its teaching should, therefore, be regarded as a criminal offence. APL is a mistake, carried through to perfection. It is the language of the future for the programming techniques of the past: it creates a new generation of coding bums.

From man or angel the great Architect did wisely to conceal, and not divulge his secrets to be scanned by them who ought rather admire; or if they list to try conjecture, he his fabric of the heavens left to their disputes, perhaps to move his laughter at their quaint opinions wide hereafter, when they come to model heaven calculate the stars, how they will wield the mighty frame, how build, unbuild, contrive to save appearances, how gird the sphere with centric and eccentric scribbled o’er, and epicycle, orb in orb.
~~~~~~~
From now on we live in a world where man has walked on the Moon. It’s not a miracle; we just decided to go.
~~~~~~~
From the level of pragmatic, everyday knowledge to modern natural science, the knowledge of nature derives from man’s primary coming to grips with nature; at the same time it reacts back upon the system of social labour and stimulates its development.
~~~~~~~
Furnished as all Europe now is with Academies of Science, with nice instruments and the spirit of experiment, the progress of human knowledge will be rapid and discoveries made of which we have at present no conception. I begin to be almost sorry I was born so soon, since I cannot have the happiness of knowing what will be known a hundred years hence.

Give me a firm place to stand and I will move the earth.- Archimedes

Go away, I’m trying to die…because I’m tired of the world, & the world is evidenly tired of me…Why? Because it’s all logic & reason now, science, progress, laws of hydraulics, laws of social dynamics, laws of this that & the other. No place for 3-legged cyclops from the south seas, no place for cucumber trees and oceans of wine. No place for me. I’ve just been expelled from a state of bliss & it’s all your fault. Anonymous quotes

Half of the modern drugs could well be thrown out of the window, except that the birds might eat them.
