The best quotes about Science

  • Physics is like making love: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it. (c) Richard P. Feynman
  • The Scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, and if nature were not worth knowing, life would not be worth living. (c) Henri Poincare.
  • The science is no fun, if you are never wrong! (c) Thomas Gold
  • The science is said to be useful if its development tends to accentuate the existing inequalities in distribution of wealth, or more directly promotes the destruction of human life (с) G.H. Hardy (see also G. H. Hardy A Mathematician's Apology. Cambridge: University Press. pp. 153, 2004)
  • No pain <=> No gain
