It liberates man from the bondage of the past, due to ignorance and accident hardened into custom. It projects a better future and assists man in its realization." Top 5 quotes from Science "Science is not about building a body of known 'facts'. It is a method for asking awkward questions and subjecting them to a reality-check, thus avoiding the human tendency to believe whatever makes us feel good." "Nothing before had ever made me thoroughly realise, though I had read various scientific books, that science consists in grouping facts so that general laws or conclusions may be drawn from them." "Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it." "If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?" "All theoretical chemistry is really physics; and all theoretical chemists know it."
