We are all afraid for our confidence, for the future, for the world. That is the nature of the human imagination. Yet every man, every civilization, has gone forward because of its engagement with what it has set itself to do. – Jacob Bronowski
Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty. – Jacob Bronowski
Who has not hoped
To outrage an enemys dignity?
Who has not been swept
By the wish to hurt?
And who has not thought that the impersonal world
Deserves no better than to be destroyed
By one fabulous sign of his displeasure? – Jacob Bronowski
It doesnt matter whether youre talking about bombs or the intelligence quotients of one race as against another if a man is a scientist, like me, hell always say Publish and be damned. – Jacob Bronowski
