Science is what scientists do.

Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge.

Science is the pursuit of pure truth, and the systematizing of it.

Science is like a love affair with nature; an elusive, tantalising mistress. It has all the turbulence, twists and turns of romantic love, but that's part of the game.

Science - or the products of science like technology - is just a way of achieving something real, something that happens, something that works.

Science is the search for truth, that is the effort to understand the world: it involves the rejection of bias, of dogma, of revelation, but not the rejection of morality.

Science can promote an understanding between people at a really fundamental level.

Science is about nothing but getting at the truth, and anything that gets in the way of that diminishes, in my experience, the science.

Science is an enterprise that should be cherished as an activity of the free human mind. Because it transforms who we are, how we live, and it gives us an understanding of our place in the universe.

Science shouldn't be just for scientists, and there are encouraging signs that it is becoming more pervasive in culture and the media.
