Famous quotes containing the words progress and/or science:
““... A nation has to take its natural course

Until the eddy of it eddies out.””

“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country.

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
