It is the business of the future to be dangerous; and it is among the merits of science that it equips the future for its duties.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The idea that science is just some luxury that you'll get around to if you can afford it is regressive to any future a country might dream for itself.
The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.
There's a danger of some of the best people saying, 'I don't want a career in science.'
The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.
My laboratory and my obsession is about safety and building/engineering safety. It's not just a matter of saying we want the world to be safer; we have to create technology.
Danger is ever-present in life, more for some than others.
If scientists can't communicate with the public, with policy makers, with one another, the future is going to be held back. We're not going to have the future that we could have.
The future of society is 100% dependent on scientific advances.
Everything is fraught with danger. I love technology and I love science. It's just always all in the way you use it. So there's no - you can't really blame anything on the technology. It's just the way people use it, and it always has been.
We need not be afraid of the future, for the future will be in our own hands.
