Scientific Knowledge

Famous quotes containing the words scientific and/or knowledge:

    In economics, hope and faith coexist with great scientific pretension and also a deep desire for respectability.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    Horse-play, romping, frequent and loud fits of laughter, jokes, waggery, and indiscriminate familiarity, will sink both merit and knowledge into a degree of contempt. They compose at most a merry fellow; and a merry fellow was never yet a respectable man.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
