More From Thomas Huxley
- "The scientific imagination always restrains itself within the limits of probability."
- "I protest that if some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right, on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and would up every morning before I got out of bed, I should instantly close with the offer."
- "My business is to teach my aspirations to confirm themselves to fact, not to try and make facts harmonize with my aspirations."

- "The abortion license has not brought freedom and security to women. Rather, it has ushered in a new era of irresponsibility toward women and children, one that now begins before birth."― Robert Casey
- "All Americans value the freedom of speech and the freedom of the press, and I believe this is essential for our continued way of life. But with this freedom comes responsibility. That responsibility has been abdicated here by some in the media and some in the government."― Steven Hatfill
