Reward/science

Famous quotes containing the words reward and/or science:

“Any effort in philosophy to make the obscure obvious is likely to be unappealing, for the penalty of failure is confusion while the reward of success is banality. An answer, once found, is dull; and the only remaining interest lies in a further effort to render equally dull what is still obscure enough to be intriguing.”
—Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)

“The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
