Famous quotes containing the words science and/or technology:

    “The so-called science of poll-taking is not a science at all but mere necromancy. People are unpredictable by nature, and although you can take a nation’s pulse, you can’t be sure that the nation hasn’t just run up a flight of stairs.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    “Primitive peoples tried to annul death by portraying the human body—we do it by finding substitutes for the human body. Technology instead of mysticism!”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)
