Quotes About Science

That which is now called natural philosophy, embracing the whole circle of science, of which astronomy occupies the chief place, is the study of the works of God, and of the power and wisdom of God in his works, and is the true theology.
~ Thomas Paine
Thomas Paine wrote: Ã¢â'¬Å"It would be an error of the schools to teach astronomy, and all other sciences, and subjects, and philosophies on nature, as being our accomplishments only, they should be taught theologically, with reference to the being who is the author of them all: for all the principles of science are of divine origin. Man cannot make, or invent, or contrive principles; he can only discover them; and he ought to look through the discovery to the author of them all.
~ Thomas Paine
To be happy in old age it is necessary that we accustom ourselves to objects that can accompany the mind all the way through life, and that we take the rest as good in their day.

~ Thomas Paine
Ceea ce acum poarta numele de filosofie naturala, cuprinzand intregul cerc al stiintei, unde astronomia ocupa pozitia principala, reprezinta studiul lucrarii lui Dumnezeu si al puterii si intelepciunii lui Dumnezeu din lucrarea Sa, aceasta fiind adevarata teologie. [...] Cat despre teologia studiata acum in locul acesteia, este vorba despre studiul opiniilor si inchipuirilor omenesti despre Dumnezeu.
