I've started a company, called Tall Girl Productions, and we've got our first project that is purely producing, not writing, with a writer named Evan Daugherty. It's for NBC, it's called 'Afterthought,' and it's science fiction-ish. That's fun. Melissa Rosenberg
This is actually a very important principle that science is learning about large systems like evolution and that futurists are learning about anticipating human society: just because a future scenario is plausible doesn't mean we can get there from here. Kevin Kelly
The rise of Google, the rise of Facebook, the rise of Apple, I think are proof that there is a place for computer science as something that solves problems that people face every day. Eric Schmidt
A second reason why science cannot replace judgement is the behavior of financial markets. Martin Feldstein
I cannot say how strongly I object to people using other people's writing as research. Research is non-fiction, especially for horror, fantasy, science fiction. Do not take your research from other people's fiction. Just don't. Laurell K. Hamilton
If Margaret Thatcher took climate change seriously and believed that we should take action to reduce global greenhouse emissions, then taking action and supporting and accepting the science can hardly be the mark of incipient Bolshevism. Malcolm Turnbull
Science is the highest personification of the nation because that nation will remain the first which carries the furthest the works of thought and intelligence. Louis Pasteur
Christmas renews our youth by stirring our wonder. The capacity for wonder has been called our most pregnant human faculty, for in it are born our art, our science, our religion. Ralph W. Sockman
I began reading science fiction before I was 12 and started writing science fiction around the same time. Octavia Butler
Science fiction let me do both. It let me look into science and stick my nose in everywhere. Octavia Butler
The thing about science fiction is that it's totally wide open. But it's wide open in a conditional way. Octavia Butler
Fantasy is totally wide open all you really have to do is follow the rules you've set. But if you're writing about science, you have to first learn what you're writing about. Octavia Butler
No one was going to stop me from writing and no one had to really guide me towards science fiction. It was natural, really, that I would take that interest. Octavia Butler
So fantasy was fine early on, and when I discovered science fiction, I was very happy with it, because my first interest in science fiction came with an interest in astronomy. Octavia Butler
I was attracted to science fiction because it was so wide open. I was able to do anything and there were no walls to hem you in and there was no human condition that you were stopped from examining. Octavia Butler
I told my father I had to try political science for a year. He thought I was throwing my life away. Paul Wolfowitz
One of the things that ultimately led me to leave mathematics and go into political science was thinking I could prevent nuclear war. Paul Wolfowitz
Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it. But all science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws - a thing which can never be demonstrated. Tryon Edwards
For a member to say, 'I'm a lame duck' violates political science 101. Charles Rangel
With science fiction there's endless possibilities. Anna Torv
