Art is made to disturb, science reassures.
When you apply computer science and machine learning to areas that haven’t had any innovation in 50 years, you can make rapid advances that seem really incredible.
Language is conceived in sin and science is its redemption.
History is, in its essentials, the science of change. It knows and it teaches that it is impossible to find two events that are ever exactly alike, because the conditions from which they spring are never identical.
The conflict between religion and science is inherent and (very nearly) zero-sum. The success of science often comes at the expense of religious dogma; the maintenance of religious dogma always comes at the expense of science.
Science is the first expression of punk, because it doesn’t advance without challenging authority. It doesn’t make progress without tearing down what was there before and building upon the structure.
When does life begin? When does the soul enter? That’s a religious question. Science is not going to be able to help with that.
Raising children is a creative endeavor, an art rather than a science.
Religion and science are the two conjugated faces or phases of one and the same complete act of knowledge – the only one which can embrace the past and future of evolution and so contemplate, measure and fulfil them.
The rise of Google, the rise of Facebook, the rise of Apple, I think are proof that there is a place for computer science as something that solves problems that people face every day.
For a genre that’s about looking to the future, science fiction has sure been looking backwards lately. Nostalgia is what sells best, with readers spending their money on movie tie-in novels and sequels to long-running series.
Ayurveda is a sister philosophy to yoga. It is the science of life or longevity and it teaches about the power and the cycles of nature, as well as the elements.
All different forms of human expression, art, science, are going to become expanded, by expanding our intelligence.
I was thrilled and amazed when I found out we won the Nobel Prize. The dedicated and talented women and men of the COBE team collaborated to produce the science results being recognized. This is truly such a rare and special honor.
Religion, art, and science flourish best in a free society. True, freedom does not afford much opportunity for grand gestures. It has little room for martyrs. But life is not supposed to be about dying well. It is about living well.
I would have become a pilot if it wasn’t for my poor eyesight and the fact that I am hopeless in science.
Science has been quite embattled. It’s the most important thing there is. An arts graduate is not going to fix global warming. They may do other valuable things, but they are not going to fix the planet or cure cancer or get rid of malaria.
If you want to save the natural environment, you just use nuclear. You grow more food on less land, and people live in cities. It’s not rocket science.
Britain punches way above its weight in science, and I think we need to continue to do that, and anything that makes it easier to bring scientists in will be very welcome.
I love science, and I believe in it. I have a faith that science can solve problems and make the world a better place.
Science is but an image of the truth.
My parents divorced when I was born, and my mother is a political science professor, like a feminist Mormon, which is sort of an oxymoron.
Experience by itself is not science.
The culinary world is a fascinating place that has been influenced over the centuries by culture, religion, fashion, war, art, science and, more recently, globalisation.
As soon as I could ride a bike… I was always riding over to the Museum of Science and Industry to explore. It’s where I first began to develop a fascination with machines and scientific principles.
