Our science fails to recognize those special properties of life that make it fundamental to material reality. This view of the world - biocentrism - revolves around the way a subjective experience, which we call consciousness, relates to a physical process. It is a vast mystery and one that I have pursued my entire life. Robert Lanza
The No Child Left Behind Program was an incentive to the schools to get their kids up to snuff on math and science and reading. Sandra Day O'Connor
There's no question that as science, knowledge and technology advance, that we will attempt to do more significant things. And there's no question that we will always have to temper those things with ethics. Benjamin Carson
It is the business of the future to be dangerous and it is among the merits of science that it equips the future for its duties. Alfred North Whitehead
Nothing retains less of desire in art, in science, than this will to industry, booty, possession. Andre Breton
We've made science experiments of ourselves and our children. Jonathan Safran Foer
A body of work such as Pasteur's is inconceivable in our time: no man would be given a chance to create a whole science. Nowadays a path is scarcely opened up when the crowd begins to pour in. Jean Rostand
Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy but after a war it seems more like astrology. Rebecca West
I was always very interested in science, and I knew that for me, science was a better long-term career than tennis. Sally Ride
Rocket science is tough, and rockets have a way of failing. Sally Ride
Science is fun. Science is curiosity. We all have natural curiosity. Science is a process of investigating. It's posing questions and coming up with a method. It's delving in. Sally Ride
Nature is not simply a technical or economical resource, and human beings are not mere numbers. To suggest that one can somehow align all the squabbling institutions of science, environmental management, government and diplomacy in an alliance of convenience to regulate the global climate seems to me optimistic. James Buchan
Humanity has experienced many revolutionary changes over the course of history: revolutions in agriculture, in science, industrial production, as well as numerous political revolutions. But these have all been limited to the external aspects of our individual and collective lives. Daisaku Ikeda
The most important thing we can do is inspire young minds and to advance the kind of science, math and technology education that will help youngsters take us to the next phase of space travel. John Glenn
If you start any large theory, such as quantum mechanics, plate tectonics, evolution, it takes about 40 years for mainstream science to come around. Gaia has been going for only 30 years or so. James Lovelock
Fudging the data in any way whatsoever is quite literally a sin against the holy ghost of science. I'm not religious, but I put it that way because I feel so strongly. It's the one thing you do not ever do. You've got to have standards. James Lovelock
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 don't 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
Faulkner is a writer who has had much to do with my soul, but Hemingway is the one who had the most to do with my craft - not simply for his books, but for his astounding knowledge of the aspect of craftsmanship in the science of writing. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art. Susan Sontag
