― Stephen Jay Gould, Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History

“We should try to introduce our children to science today as a rebellion against poverty and ugliness and militarism and economic injustice.”

“We must regard science, then, from three points of view. First, it is the free activity of man's divine faculties of reason and imagination. Secondly, it is the answer of the few to the demands of the many for wealth, comfort and victory, gifts which it will grant only in exchange for peace, security and stagnation. Finally it is man's gradual conquest, first of space and time, the of matters as such, then of his own body and those of other living beings, and finally the subjugation of the dark and evil elements in his own soul.”
― Freeman Dyson, The Scientist as Rebel
