Top 5 quotes from Science

"Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it."
"All theoretical chemistry is really physics; and all theoretical chemists know it."
"If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?"
"Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another."
