Great Scientist Quotes

Austrian public-opinion pollsters recently reported that those held in highest esteem by most of the people interviewed are neither the great artists nor the great scientists, neither the great statesmen nor the great sport figures, but those who master a hard lot with their heads held high. Viktor E. Frankl
It's as great a part of the human adventure to invent things as to understand them. John Randall wasn't a great scientist, but he was a great inventor. There's been lots more like him, and it's a shame they don't get Nobel Prizes. Freeman Dyson
When kids look up to great scientists the way they do to great musicians and actors, civilization will jump to the next level Brian Greene
A great scientist once said that genius consists not in making great discoveries but in seeing the connection between small discoveries. Walker Percy
It is not enough to say that we cannot know or judge because all the information is not in. The process of gathering knowledge does not lead to knowing. A child's world spreads only a little beyond his understanding while that of a great scientist thrusts outward immeasurably. An answer is invariably the parent of a great family of new questions. So we draw worlds and fit them like tracings against the world about us, and crumple them when they do not fit and draw new ones. John Steinbeck
Loren Eiseley quote: "It is frequently the tragedy of the great artist, as it is of..."
It is frequently the tragedy of the great artist, as it is of the great scientist, that he frightens the ordinary man. Loren Eiseley
Of course, Einstein was a very great scientist indeed, and I have enormous respect for him, and great admiration for the discoveries he made. But he was very committed to a view of the objectivity of the physical world. John Polkinghorne
I cannot conceive of a great scientist without this profound faith: Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. Albert Einstein
All the greatest men are maniacs. They are possessed by a mania which drives them forward towards thier goal. The great scientists, the philosophers, the religious leaders - all maniacs. What else but a blind singlenee of purpose could have given focus to thier genius, would have kept them in the groove of purpose. Mania ... is as priceless as genius. Ian Fleming
As great scientists have said and as all children know, it is above all by the imagination that we achieve perception, and compassion, and hope. Ursula K. Le Guin
Albert Einstein quote: "Most people say that it is the intellect which makes a great..."
Most people say that it is the intellect which makes a great scientist. They are wrong: it is character. Albert Einstein
Orville Wright quote: "The fact that the great scientist believed in flying machines..."
The fact that the great scientist believed in flying machines was the one thing that encouraged us to begin our studies. Orville Wright
Great numbers of children will be born who understand electronics and atomic power as well as other forms of energy. They will grow into scientists and engineers of a new age which has the power to destroy civilization unless we learn to live by spiritual laws. Edgar Cayce
James A. Michener quote: "Scientists dream about doing great things. Engineers do them."
Scientists dream about doing great things. Engineers do them. James A. Michener
Scientists are human, they're as biased as any other group. But they do have one great advantage in that science is a self-correcting process. Cyril Ponnamperuma
