Famous quotes containing the words social and/or sciences:

    “I was like a social worker for lepers. My clients had a chunk of their body they wanted to give away; for a price I was there to receive it. Crimes, sins, nightmares, hunks of hair: it was surprising how many of them has something to dispose of. The more I charged, the easier it was for them to breathe freely once more.”
    —Tama Janowitz (b. 1957)

    “Normally, the sciences distance themselves from life and the return to it via a detour.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
