The Biology Spot : Memorable Quotes

Definition of Science

Science is best defined as a careful, disciplined, logical search for knowledge about any and
all aspects of the universe, obtained by examination of the best available evidence and
always subject to correction and improvement upon discovery of better evidence. What's
left is magic. And it doesn't work.
- James Randi 

Need for Science Education

We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly
depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost
no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster.

— Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World, 1996.

Self-motivation

The real contest is always between what you've done and what you're
capable of doing. You measure yourself against yourself and nobody else.

Geoffrey Gaberino
