Famous quotes containing the words science and, science and/or technology:

    “If you have science and art,
    You also have religion;
    But if you don’t have them,
    You better have religion.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “He is not a true man of science who does not bring some sympathy to his studies, and expect to learn something by behavior as well as by application. It is childish to rest in the discovery of mere coincidences, or of partial and extraneous laws. The study of geometry is a petty and idle exercise of the mind, if it is applied to no larger system than the starry one.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Our technology forces us to live mythically, but we continue to think fragmentarily, and on single, separate planes.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
