Science fiction is not prescriptive it is descriptive.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
Part of the particular interest and beauty of science fiction and fantasy: writer and reader collaborate in world-making.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
If science fiction is the mythology of modern technology, then its myth is tragic.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
Little mirrors were attached to the front of their cars, at which they glanced to see where they had been then they stared ahead again. I had thought that only beetles had this delusion of Progress.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
The 'size' of science has doubled steadily every 15 years. In a century this means a factor of 100. For every single scientific paper or for every single scientist in 1670, there were 100 in 1770, 10,000 in 1870 and 1,000,000 in 1970.
John Ziman

In the last fifty years science has advanced more than in the 2,000 previous years and given mankind greater powers over the forces of nature than the ancients ascribed to their gods.
John Boyd Orr

It is what makes the reform process an art, not just a science. You have to develop a strategy that tells you what reform measures you should follow and in what sequence.
Vaclav Klaus

The climate change debate is basically not about science it is about ideology. It is not about global temperature it is about the concept of human society. It is not about nature or scientific ecology it is about environmentalism, about one - recently born - dirigistic and collectivistic ideology, which goes against freedom and free markets.
Vaclav Klaus
Image
The physicist can never subject an isolated hypothesis to experimental test, but only a whole group of hypotheses.
Pierre Duhem
Image
Acting is not a science. Anybody who believes that their success exists in relation to their goals is deluding themselves unless you think of a career in terms of financial goals. I have nothing against Tom Cruise, but he must have a large capacity to deal with the business side of movies.
Val Kilmer
Image
For truly in nature there are many operations that are far more than mechanical. Nature is not simply an organic body like a clock, which has no vital principle of motion in it but it is a living body which has life and perception, which are much more exalted than a mere mechanism or a mechanical motion.
Anne Conway, Viscountess Conway
Image
The self forms at the edge of desire, and a science of self arises in the effort to leave that self behind.
Anne Carson
Image
It was during my enchanted days of travel that the idea came to me, which, through the years, has come into my thoughts again and again and always happily-the idea that geology is the music of the earth.
Hans Cloos
Image
Only small minds are impressed by large numbers.
Arthur C. Clarke
Image
The spirit is one of the most neglected parts of man by doctors and scientists around the world. Yet, it is as vital to our health as the heart and mind. It's time for science to examine the many facets of the soul. The condition of our soul is usually the source of many sicknesses.

Clean coal represents a breakthrough in the marketing of coal, but not in the science of burning coal.
Van Jones

There is a theorem that colloquially translates, You cannot comb the hair on a bowling ball. ... Clearly, none of these mathematicians had Afros, because to comb an Afro is to pick it straight away from the scalp. If bowling balls had Afros, then yes, they could be combed without violation of mathematical theorems.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Image
Diversity creates harmony, and harmony creates beauty, balance, bounty and peace in nature and society, in agriculture and culture, in science and in politics.
Vandana Shiva

Intelligence is not a science.
Frank Carlucci
Image
Baking may be regarded as a science, but it's the chemistry between the ingredients and the cook that gives desserts life. Baking is done out of love, to share with family and friends, to see them smile.
Anna Olson

The word impossible is not a scientific term.
Vanna Bonta
Image
To those who are trained in science, creationism seems a bad dream, a sudden coming back to life of a nightmare, a renewed march of an Army of the Night risen to challenge free thought and enlightenment.
Isaac Asimov
Image
I set out to show that there exists single creative activity,which is displayed alike in the arts and in the sciences.It is wrong to think of science as a mechanical record of facts, and it is wrong to think of the arts as remote and private fancies. What makes each human, what makes them universal, is the stamp of the creative mind.
Jacob Bronowski
Image
Small science, which includes most research in the life sciences all over the world, is science directed usually by an individual senior scientist and a small team of junior associates, perhaps three, ten, fifteen, something in that order.
