More quotes by Isaac Asimov
Happiness is doing it rotten your own way.
Isaac Asimov
In the presence of total Darkness, the mind finds it absolutely necessary to create light.
Isaac Asimov
The world is being Americanized and technologized to its limits, and that makes it dull for some people. Reaching the Moon restores the frontier and gives us the lands beyond.
Isaac Asimov
When stupidity is considered patriotism, it is unsafe to be intelligent.
Isaac Asimov
I'm gradually managing to cram my mind more and more full of things. I've got this beautiful mind and it's going to die, and it'll all be gone. And then I say, not in my case. Every idea I've ever had I've written down, and it's all there on paper. And I won't be gone it'll be there.
Isaac Asimov
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
Isaac Asimov
I have written 240 books on a wide variety of topics. . . . Some of it I based on education I received in my school, but most of it was backed by other ways of learning - chiefly in the books I obtained in the public library.
Isaac Asimov
The easiest way to solve a problem is to deny it exists.
Isaac Asimov
Postulates are based on assumption and adhered to by faith. Nothing in the Universe can shake them.
Isaac Asimov
It is precisely because it is fashionable for Americans to know no science, even though they may be well educated otherwise, that they so easily fall prey to nonsense.
Isaac Asimov
Dreams may be impossible, yet still be dreamed.
Isaac Asimov
Suppose we were to teach creationism. What would be the content of the teaching? Merely that a creator formed the universe and all species of life ready-made? Nothing more? No details?
Isaac Asimov
Boasts are wind and deeds are hard.
Isaac Asimov
I prefer rationalism to atheism. The question of God and other objects-of-faith are outside reason and play no part in rationalism, thus you don't have to waste your time in either attacking or defending.
Isaac Asimov
There is no more desire to live past one's time than to die before it.
Isaac Asimov
Tens of millions of Americans who neither know or understand the actual arguments for, or even against, evolution, march in the Army of the Night with their Bibles held high
Isaac Asimov
The history of science is full of revolutionary advances that required small insights that anyone might have had, but that, in fact, only one person did.
Isaac Asimov
Every religion seems like a fantasy to outsiders, but as holy truth to those of the faith.
Isaac Asimov
Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is. The only function of a school is to make self-education easier failing that, it does nothing.
Isaac Asimov
Any system which allows men to choose their own future will end by choosing safety and mediocrity, and in such a Reality the stars are out of reach.
Isaac Asimov
