Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or sciences:

    ““You, that have not lived in thought but deed,
    Can have the purity of a natural force,
    But I, whose virtues are the definitions
    Of the analytic mind, can neither close
    The eye of the mind nor keep my tongue from speech.””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The best thing about the sciences is their philosophical ingredient, like life for an organic body. If one dephilosophizes the sciences, what remains left? Earth, air, and water.”
    —Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
