Famous quotes containing the words science and, science and/or technology:

    “Curiosity engenders both science and scandal.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “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)

    “Our technology forces us to live mythically, but we continue to think fragmentarily, and on single, separate planes.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
