Sir Anthony Eden

Human science fragments everything in order to understand it, kills everything in order to examine it.

Science is properly more scrupulous than dogma. Dogma gives a charter to mistake, but the very breath of science is a contest with mistake, and must keep the conscience alive.

Science becomes dangerous only when it imagines that it has reached its goal.

The latest refinements of science are linked with the cruelties of the Stone Age.

Science is the great antidote to the poison of enthusiasm and superstition.

Science, after all, is only an expression for our ignorance of our own ignorance.

Inanimate objects are classified scientifically into three major categories – those that don’t work, those that break down and those that get lost.

Science is always wrong, it never solves a problem without creating ten more.

A physicist is an atom’s way of knowing about atoms.

Science is but an image of the truth.

It’s really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global warming!

If you look at the history of our country over the last 100 years, there have been periods where science and research have been celebrated. They were really kind of held up as heroes in society, which encouraged a generation of people to go into these fields.

The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.

To expect that the intricacies of science will be pierced by a careless glance, or the eminences of fame ascended without labour, is to expect a peculiar privilege, a power denied to the rest of mankind; but to suppose that the maze is inscrutable to diligence, or the heights inaccessible to perseverance, is to submit tamely to the tyranny of fancy, and enchain the mind in voluntary shackles.

Science is facts; just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
