Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “When science drove the gods out of nature, they took refuge in poetry and the porticos of civic buildings.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The puritanical potentialities of science have never been forecast. If it evolves a body of organized rites, and is established as a religion, hierarchically organized, things more than anything else will be done in the name of “decency.” The coarse fumes of tobacco and liquors, the consequent tainting of the breath and staining of white fingers and teeth, which is so offensive to many women, will be the first things attended to.”
    —Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    “Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey-cage.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
