Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “The science of constructing a commonwealth, or renovating it, or reforming it, is, like every other experimental science, not to be taught a priori. Nor is it a short experience that can instruct us in that practical science, because the real effects of moral causes are not always immediate.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
