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

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

    “Current illusion is that science has abolished all natural laws.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
    —Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
