Famous quotes containing the words science and/or technology:

    “Our science has become terrible, our research dangerous, our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “Technology is not an image of the world but a way of operating on reality. The nihilism of technology lies not only in the fact that it is the most perfect expression of the will to power ... but also in the fact that it lacks meaning.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
