Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or sciences:

    “... the natural outlawry of womankind ...”
    —Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    “All cultural change reduces itself to a difference of categories. All revolutions, whether in the sciences or world history, occur merely because spirit has changed its categories in order to understand and examine what belongs to it, in order to possess and grasp itself in a truer, deeper, more intimate and unified manner.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
