If you study science deep enough and long enough, it will force you to believe in God.

There is nothing in science which teaches the origin of anything at all.

Accurate and minute measurement seems to the non-scientific imagination, a less lofty and dignified work than looking for something new. But nearly all the grandest discoveries of science have been but the rewards of accurate measurement and patient long-continued labour in the minute sifting of numerical results.

Science is bound, by the everlasting vow of honour, to face fearlessly every problem which can be fairly presented to it.

If you cannot measure it, then it is not science.

We all confidently believe that there are at present, and have been from time immemorial, many worlds of life besides our own. . . . [This] may seem wild, and visionary; all I maintain is that it is not unscientific.

When you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it.
