Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or science:

    “The idea that seeing life means going from place to place and doing a great variety of obvious things is an illusion natural to dull minds.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    “Imagination could hardly do without metaphor, for imagination is, literally, the moving around in one’s mind of images, and such images tend commonly to be metaphoric. Creative minds, as we know, are rich in images and metaphors, and this is true in science and art alike. The difference between scientist and artist has little to do with the ways of the creative imagination; everything to do with the manner of demonstration and verification of what has been seen or imagined.”
    —Robert A. Nisbet (b. 1913)
