Moore/science

Famous quotes containing the words moore and/or science:

    Sun and moon and day and night and man and beast
    each with a splendor
    which man in all his vileness cannot
    set aside; each with an excellence!
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    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)
