Anecdotal thinking comes naturally; science requires training.

We know that once we stop learning and call ourselves learned, we become useless members of the scientific society.

We keep, in science, getting a more and more sophisticated view of our essential ignorance.

I meant exactly what I said: that we are saddled with a culture that hasn't advanced as far as science.

I think what a life in science really teaches you is the vastness of our ignorance.

Science progresses best when observations force us to alter our preconceptions.

I came to America to teach my method - not to enter a research experiment.

I'm not just a scientist.

When all is said and done, science actually takes hard work and a willingness to sometimes find out that your most cherished hypothesis is wrong.

That knowledge which is popular is not scientific.
