Famous quotes containing the words scientific and/or interest:
“Philosophers of science constantly discuss theories and representation of reality, but say almost nothing about experiment, technology, or the use of knowledge to alter the world. This is odd, because ‘experimental method’ used to be just another name for scientific method.... I hope [to] initiate a Back-to-Bacon movement, in which we attend more seriously to experimental science. Experimentation has a life of its own.”
—Ian Hacking (b. 1936)
“A mob cannot be a permanency: everybody’s interest requires that it should not exist, and only justice satisfies all.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
