Famous quotes containing the word science:

    Man lives for science as well as bread.
    William James (1842–1910)

    Nothing matters but the facts. Without them, the science of criminal investigation is nothing more than a guessing game.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)
