For me it's been very exciting to contribute to the public's understanding of how rich and wondrous science is.

Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.

Science is to do research because of the target's fascinating and interesting characteristics.

Research is of considerable importance in certain fields, such as science and history.

The most exciting thing in the twentieth century is science.

There are two things I enjoy most about my work. First, I get to work with interesting and enthusiastic people who are also fired up about science. Second, every once in a while I have moments in which I suddenly understand the solution to a problem that I've been working on - those are great moments.

Science has always been my preoccupation and when you think a breakthrough is possible, it is terribly exciting.

Science should be the most fun job on the planet. You get to ask questions about the world around you and go out and seek the answers. Not to have fun doing that is crazy.

Whenever I think of how much pleasure I have interviewing scientists, I remember that they're having the real fun in actually being able to do the science.

Most of the people who are engaged in the subjects that I look into are pretty interesting. Whether its sex researchers or someone who's devoted their career to saliva or somebody who does research with cadavers, there's an inherent fascination in the subject matter of their work.
