Famous quotes containing the words health and/or science:

    A major difference between witches and psychotherapists is that witches see the mental health of women as having important political consequences.
    Naomi R. Goldenberg (b. 1947)

    It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.
    Karl Popper (1902–1994)
