In all my research I have never come across matter. To me the term matter implies a bundle of energy which is given form by an intelligent spirit.

Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves are a part of the mystery that we are trying to solve.

Experiment is the only means of knowledge at our disposal. Everything else is poetry, imagination.

Anybody who has been seriously engaged in scientific work of any kind realizes that over the entrance to the gates of the temple of science are written the words: 'Ye must have faith.'

A scientist is happy, not in resting on his attainments but in the steady acquisition of fresh knowledge.

Science progresses not by convincing the adherents of old theories that they are wrong, but by allowing enough time to pass so that a new generation can arise unencumbered by the old errors.

An experiment is a question which science poses to Nature and a measurement is the recording of Nature's answer.
