Science and Education Quotes

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has
its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe
when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of
the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries
merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day.
Never lose a holy curiosity.
-Albert Einstein

Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths
theater.
- Gail Godwin

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that
heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but
'That's funny ...'
- Isaac Asimov

In essence, science is a perpetual search for an intelligent
and integrated comprehension of the world we live in.
Cornelius Bernardus Van Neil (1897- ) U. S. microbiologist.

Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be,
and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain
necessary.
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) U. S. physicist, born in Germany.
