Lineage/science

Famous quotes containing the words lineage and/or science:

“I declare
Two lineages electrify the air,
That will like pennons from a mast
Fly over sleep and life and death
Till sun is powerless to decoy
A single seed above the earth:
Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“There is a chasm between knowledge and ignorance which the arches of science can never span.”
