Scientific Method

What hopes and fears does this scientific method imply for mankind? I do not think that this is the right way to put the question. Whatever this tool in the hand of man will produce depends entirely on the nature of the goals alive in this mankind. Once these goals exist, scientific method furnishes means to realize them. Yet it cannot furnish the very goals. The scientific method itself would not have led anywhere, it would not even have been born without a passionate striving for clear understanding - Einstein

 

Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science - Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong - Albert Einstein

 

Each problem that I solved became a rule, which served afterwards to solve other problems - Rene Descartes

 

Science and technology revolutionize our lives, but memory, tradition and myth frame our response - Arthur M. Schlesinger

 

Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge - Carl Sagan

 

I can live with doubt and uncertainty. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong." - Richard P. Feynman
