Our idea of nature is increasingly being determined by scientific developments. And they have become decisive for our image of reality.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Science is about unravelling nature.
A view of nature as dense and nonlinear is at the core of our contemporary science. Process and order emerge subtly.
Science shows us truth and beauty and fills each day with a fresh wonder of the exquisite order which governs our world.
Nature is infinitely creative. It is always producing the possibility of new beginnings.
We have found that where science has progressed the farthest, the mind has but regained from nature that which the mind put into nature.
I think that we scientists are seeking an understanding of the natural world. We come in various types - chemists and physicists and biologists and such - and we all have the same goal. We are making progress.
We have an impact on nature, and nature has an impact on us.
The illusion of purpose and design is perhaps the most pervasive illusion about nature that science has to confront on a daily basis.
In nature, when you conduct science, it is the natural world that is the ultimate decider in what is true and what is not.
Real progress in understanding nature is rarely incremental. All important advances are sudden intuitions, new principles, new ways of seeing.
