Quotes About Science

I need physics more than friends.
~ J. Robert Oppenheimer
In the past, there was active discrimination against women in science. That has now gone, and although there are residual effects, these are not enough to account for the small numbers of women, particularly in mathematics and physics.
~ Stephen Hawking
The development of physics, like the development of any science, is a continuous one.
~ Owen Chamberlain
Physics is based on the assumption that certain fundamental features of nature are constant.
~ Rupert Sheldrake
If you go into any physics lab, everybody is depressed and feels isolated. We don't get any feedback that anybody cares about what we're doing.
~ Aaron D. O'Connell
I have always enjoyed explaining physics. In fact it's more than just enjoyment: I need to explain physics.
~ Leonard Susskind
The science of semiconducting and metallic polymers is inherently interdisciplinary; it falls at the intersection of chemistry and physics.
~ Alan J. Heeger
I've learnt more physics from Kabbalah than I ever did in school.
~ Yehuda Berg
Dark energy is perhaps the biggest mystery in physics.
~ Steve Allen
I have this amateur side attraction to, and interest in, the sciences and biology and physics and evolution. Paleontology is of interest to me. I'm interested in the way these fields have helped us understand how we are human and why we are human.
~ Wangechi Mutu
What is important about graphene is the new physics it has delivered.
~ Andre Geim
I was always good at math and science and physics.
~ Daniel J. Evans
You can't argue with physics, mate.
~ Guy Martin
I do not keep up with the details of particle physics.
~ Murray Gell-Mann
Cambridge was the place for someone from the Colonies or the Dominions to go on to, and it was to the Cavendish Laboratory that one went to do physics.
~ Aaron Klug
We live, I think, in the century of science and, perhaps, even in the century of physics.
~ Polykarp Kusch
Yes, I was really good in physics and in math.
~ Eva Herzigova
The point here is that physics followed the data where it seemed to lead, even though some thought the model gave aid and comfort to religion.
~ Michael Behe
And the actual achievements of biology are explanations in terms of mechanisms founded on physics and chemistry, which is not the same thing as explanations in terms of physics and chemistry.
~ Michael Polanyi
At school I briefly wanted to be a palaeontologist, but I was no good at chemistry and physics.
~ Mark Gatiss
We can't really do any improv on 'The Big Bang' because we don't understand a lot of what the dialogue means to begin with, because of the physics jargon.
~ Johnny Galecki
Physics is the most basic part of science and, of course, math. It gives you insight into everything - a foundation, I should say, to understand nature and the universe.
~ Fred Kavli
There's something called From 'Alchemy to Quarks,' which will teach you everything you have to know, you want to know, about physics.
~ Sheldon Lee Glashow
In the late '30's when I was in college, physics - and in particular, nuclear physics - was the most exciting field in the world.
~ Rosalyn Sussman Yalow
