What I like about sceptics is that in good science you need critics that make you think: Crumbs, have I made a mistake here? If you dont have that continuously, you really are up the creek. The good sceptics have done a good service, but some of the mad ones I think have not done anyone any favours. – James Lovelock

I hesitate to predict whether this theory is true. But if the general opinion of Mankind is optimistic then were in for a period of extreme popularity for science fiction. – David Eddings

Those theologians who are beginning to take the doctrine of creation very seriously should pay some attention to sciences story. – John Polkinghorne

Much of todays public anxiety about science is the apprehension that we may forever be overlooking the whole by an endless, obsessive preoccupation with the parts. – Lewis Thomas

This much we know: Journalism is not a precise science. Its, on its best day, is a crude art. We make mistakes I make mistakes. With more than 50 years as a journalist, I have at least had the opportunity to blow more stories, make more mistakes than maybe anybody in television. – Dan Rather

I didnt mind studying. Obviously math and the physical science subjects interested me more than some of the more artistic subjects, but I think I was a pretty good student. – Alan Shepard

When I began in 1960, individuality wasnt an accepted thing to look for it was about species-specific behaviour. But animal behaviour is not hard science. Theres room for intuition. – Jane Goodall

Women tend to be more intuitive, or to admit to being intuitive, and maybe the hard science approach isnt so attractive. The way that science is taught is very cold. I would never have become a scientist if I had been taught like that. – Jane Goodall

Honest pioneer work in the field of science has always been, and will continue to be, lifes pilot. On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation. – Wilhelm Reich

Acceptance of the power of God in ones life lays the groundwork for personal commitment to both science and Christianity, which so often have been in conflict. – Kenneth L. Pike

It may be that everything the life science companies are telling us will turn out to be right, and theres no problem here whatsoever. That defies logic. – Jeremy Rifkin

Im a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy – not so much horror because I get a bit scared. – Michael Sheen

I dont know anything about science. – Rachel Weisz

I think people are realizing that engineering and science are extremely good degrees to get and youll be very highly paid once youve got them. – James Dyson

If I can get some student interested in science, if I can show members of the general public whats going on up there in the space program, then my jobs been done. – Christa McAuliffe

Im an amateur science enthusiast. Im not even a professional enthusiast. I dont know anything I never even passed biology in high school. But I read the science section of the newspaper. – Dave Eggers

I dont think theres a date minimum or maximum. I dont get the whole All right, youve got to wait three days to call after the date. If I got a number from a girl, Id call that night. Theres no science to it for me. You just do what it is that you feel like doing. – Channing Tatum

What we see today is an American economy that has boomed because of policies and developments of the 1950s and 60s: the interstate-highway system, massive funding for science and technology, a public-education system that was the envy of the world and generous immigration policies. – Fareed Zakaria

Learn about the world, the way it works, any kind of science and anthropology, its really an interesting place we live in. Evolution is a really fantastic idea, even more than the idea of God I think. – Randy Newman
