Deep down, the US, with its space, its technological refinement, its bluff good conscience, even in those spaces which it opens up for simulation, is the only remaining primitive society.

Rocket science is tough, and rockets have a way of failing.

For a long time, society put obstacles in the way of women who wanted to enter the sciences.

I was a political science major. I was always interested in social impact.

I'm probably in the bottom 25 percent of athletes in the big leagues, just on pure athletic capability. But I've taught myself, through a lot of hard work and study and science, how to be really good at one specific thing.

I love science fiction - always have.

In high school, I didn't realize that science or engineering were male-dominated fields. When I got to college, and I was one of two girls in a 50-person class, that's when I realized that this was a unique decision I had made as a girl to go into engineering.

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.

I don't like science because I don't think it makes sense to put a definition on everything. It's a lot more exciting to think of things as mysterious.

Science regards man as an aggregation of atoms temporarily united by a mysterious force called the life-principle. To the materialist, the only difference between a living and a dead body is that in the one case that force is active, in the other latent.

The pursuit of science leads only to the insoluble.

For years, my early work with Roger Penrose seemed to be a disaster for science. It showed that the universe must have begun with a singularity, if Einstein's general theory of relativity is correct. That appeared to indicate that science could not predict how the universe would begin.

Any teaching of falsehoods in science classes should certainly be identified and stopped by school inspectors. School inspectors should be looking at science teachings to make sure they are evidence-based science.

Science is a field which grows continuously with ever expanding frontiers.

Yoga is an art and science of living.

I had hoped to do a lot more to help promote science in this country and in Europe, but I cannot see how that can happen. I have become toxic. I have been hung to dry by academic institutes who have not even bothered to ask me for my side of affairs.

Science is a principle and a process of seeking truth. Truth cannot be purchased, and thus, truth cannot be altered by money.

It's very important to reveal the mystery of the pyramid. Science in archaeology is very important. People all over the world are waiting to solve this mystery.

Science never gives up searching for truth, since it never claims to have achieved it. It is civilizing because it puts truth ahead of all else, including personal interests.

I believe that science is the engine of prosperity, that if you look around at the wealth of civilization today, it's the wealth that comes from science.

Unfortunately, things are different in climate science because the arguments have become heavily politicised. To say that the dogmas are wrong has become politically incorrect.

When the Bitcoin white paper emerged in 2008, it was completely revolutionary. The amount of concepts that had to come together in just the right way - computer science, cryptography, and economic incentives - was astonishing.

Many people, including myself, had our scientific lives changed by the inspiring new vision of science that Popper gave us.

If we choose to ignore science and refuse to fund important scientific research, we voluntarily cede our place as a world leader in innovation.
