Famous quotes containing the word scientific:

    “Anyone who is practically acquainted with scientific work is aware that those who refuse to go beyond fact rarely get as far as fact; and anyone who has studied the history of science knows that almost every great step therein has been made by the “anticipation of Nature.””
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
