Famous quotes containing the words science and/or advisors:

    “There does not exist a category of science to which one can give the name applied science. There are science and the applications of science, bound together as the fruit of the tree which bears it.”
    —Louis Pasteur (1822–1895)

    “Whoever gives advice to the sick gains a sense of superiority over them, no matter whether his advice is accepted or rejected. That is why sick people who are sensitive and proud hate their advisors even more than their illnesses.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
