Famous quotes containing the word science:

    Science is properly more scrupulous than dogma. Dogma gives a charter to mistake, but the very breath of science is a contest with mistake, and must keep the conscience alive.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    One science only will one genius fit;
    So vast is art, so narrow human wit.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
