Science is the organized skepticism in the reliability of expert opinion

The inside of a computer is as dumb as hell but it goes like mad!

I am not interested in what today's mathematicians find interesting.

If all of this, all the life of a stream of water, can be nothing but a pile of atoms, how much more is possible?

We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.

If science is to progress, what we need is the ability to experiment, honesty in reporting results—the results must be reported without somebody saying what they would like the results to have been—and finally—an important thing—the intelligence to interpret the results.

All the time you're saying to yourself, 'I could do that, but I won't,'--which is just another way of saying that you can't.
