'The great tragedy of science—the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.'
'I am a firm believer in the theory of evolution.' 'The most important thing is to be able to think critically.' 'Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense.' 'The man of science has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification.' |
