Observation is a passive science, experimentation an active science.

Claude Bernard

The simplest and cheapest of all reforms within institutional science is to switch from the passive to the active voice in writing about science.

Rupert Sheldrake

Experimentation is an active science.

Claude Bernard

At the heart of science is experimentation. Science doesn't care what you think. What's important is experimenting and actually working stuff out.

Dallas Campbell

My science teachers always encouraged their classes to 'go out and discover something' because all scientific endeavors depend on observation and experimentation. Through such pursuits, anyone can find something new to science, and if it's truly novel, the entire edifice of science might have to be restructured.

Greg Graffin

Good science is more than the mechanics of research and experimentation. Good science requires that scientists look inward-to contemplate the origin of their thoughts. The failures of science do not begin with flawed evidence or fumbled statistics; they begin with personal self-deception and an unjustified sense of knowing.

Robert A. Burton

I had learned that science is a rewarding, active process of discovery, not the passive absorption of what others had discovered.

Harold E. Varmus

Be mindful, which is more of a passive meditation practice. It is passive when you are active. Then there is active meditation, when you are passive, sitting still.

Frederick Lenz

There are two kinds of science: The black science and the white science. The science of weapon production is the black one. Working in this category of science is a great betrayal to humanity!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

I've always been on the side of science that tries to help man. I play an active part with the foundations I'm involved in. Science gives hope.

Andrea Bocelli

I come back to the science that is in it to reduce our dependence on foreign oil and climate change. It's about science, science, science and science, innovation, as we rebuild America, create jobs, invest in our people and turn this economy around.

Nancy Pelosi

Yoga is not a religion. It is a science, science of well-being, science of youthfulness, science of integrating body, mind, and soul.

Amit Ray

I have always had the feeling that organic chemistry is a very peculiar science, that organic chemists are unlike other men, and there are few occupations that give more satisfactions [sic] than masterly experimentation along the old lines of this highly specialised science.

Lawrence Joseph Henderson

Science always interested me, and science, real science, was more science fiction than science fiction.

Lynn Hershman Leeson

I'm fond of science fiction. But not all science fiction. I like science fiction where there's a scientific lesson, for example - when the science fiction book changes one thing but leaves the rest of science intact and explores the consequences of that. That's actually very valuable.

Richard Dawkins

Are science and Christianity friends? The answer to that is an emphatic yes, for any true science will be perfectly compatible with the truths we know by God's revelation. But this science is not naturalistic, while modern science usually is.

Albert Mohler
