Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “Religions die when they are proved to be true. Science is the record of dead religions.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “Imagination could hardly do without metaphor, for imagination is, literally, the moving around in one’s mind of images, and such images tend commonly to be metaphoric. Creative minds, as we know, are rich in images and metaphors, and this is true in science and art alike. The difference between scientist and artist has little to do with the ways of the creative imagination; everything to do with the manner of demonstration and verification of what has been seen or imagined.”
    —Robert A. Nisbet (b. 1913)

    “After science comes sentiment.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
