Famous quotes containing the word science:
“The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.”
—Albert Einstein (18791955)
“By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, to-day in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew. If I come to be regarded as a bête noire the descriptions will be reversed, and I shall become a Swiss Jew for the Germans and a German man of science for the English!”
—Albert Einstein (18791955)
“Human Nature is the only science of man; and yet has been hitherto the most neglected.”
—David Hume (17111776)
