You mustnt take what I say as gospel because no one can second-guess the future. – James Lovelock
Just after World War II, this country led the world in science by every way you could measure it, yet the number of scientists was a tiny proportion of what it is now. – James Lovelock
One thing that being a scientist has taught me is that you can never be certain about anything. You never know the truth. You can only approach it and hope to get a bit nearer to it each time. You iterate towards the truth. You dont know it. – James Lovelock
Fudging the data in any way whatsoever is quite literally a sin against the holy ghost of science. Im not religious, but I put it that way because I feel so strongly. Its the one thing you do not ever do. Youve got to have standards. – James Lovelock
