"We’re not all equal, it’s simply not true. That isn’t science." ― James D. Watson Topic(s): Science More From James D. Watson "Science has always been my preoccupation and when you think a breakthrough is possible, it is terribly exciting." "I think the reason people are dealing with science less well now than 50 years ago is that it has become so complicated." "Science moves with the spirit of an adventure characterized both by youthful arrogance and by the belief that the truth, once found, would be simple as well as pretty."

Haldane "We’ve arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology."― Carl Sagan "Science will explain how but not why. It talks about what is, not what ought to be. Science is descriptive, not prescriptive; it can tell us about causes but it cannot tell us about purposes. Indeed, science disavows purposes."― Jonathan Sacks
