More than any other product of human scientific culture scientific knowledge is the collective property of all mankind.

Konrad Lorenz

First of all, I hated the medical profession. Medical education in Egypt was taken from the British, French, colonial educational system. And it's very, very lacking - there is no sexology. I never read the word clitoris in any medical book when I was educated.

Nawal El Saadawi

These human experiments have gone largely unchallenged and unquestioned by Congress, the medical profession, and the scientific community at large.

Ted Gup

Nothing is known in our profession by guess; and I do not believe, that from the first dawn of medical science to the present moment, a single correct idea has ever emanated from conjecture: it is right therefore, that those who are studying their profession should be aware that there is no short road to knowledge; and that observation on the diseased living, examination of the dead, and experiments upon living animals, are the only sources of true knowledge; and that inductions from these are the sole bases of legitimate theory.

Astley Cooper

On the question of the world as a whole, science founders. For scientific knowledge the world lies in fragments, the more so the more precise our scientific knowledge becomes.

Karl Jaspers

Psychology more than any other science has had its pseudo-scientific no less than its scientific period.

James Mark Baldwin

I dreamed horse and lived horse and expected, if necessary, to marry a horse; for all practical purposes I was a horse.

James Tiptree Jr.

The efforts of the medical profession in the US to control:...its...job it proposes to monopolize. It has been carrying on a vigorous campaign all over the country against new methods and schools of healing because it wants the business...I have watched this medical profession for a long time and it bears watching.

Clarence Darrow

I think the teaching profession contributes more to the future of our society than any other single profession.

John Wooden

The Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

Benjamin Rush

There are three subjects on which the knowledge of the medical profession in general is woefully weak; they are manners, morals, and medicine.

Gerald F. Lieberman

There are no a priori obstacles to the scientific knowledge of the mind, but the scientific knowledge of the mind is not all the knowledge of the mind that there is. This is not an objection to science, it is just a distinction between different kinds of knowledge.

Tim Crane

The profession of music is lacking in horse sense, not only because the commonplace variety of horse is absent from its operations, but because parts of the horse are noticeably present.

Harry Partch

Faith is harder to shake than knowledge, love succumbs less to change than respect, hate is more enduring than aversion, and the impetus to the mightiest upheavals on this earth has at all times consisted less in a scientific knowledge dominating the masses than in a fanaticism which inspired them and sometimes in a hysteria which drove them forward.

Adolf Hitler

My three-year ride by horse from Mongolia to Hungary was the most difficult, most revealing, and interesting of any of my travels. Travelling by horse, you're far more engaged and dependent on the land and other people than by any other means.

Tim Cope

Scientific discovery and scientific knowledge have been achieved only by those who have gone in pursuit of it without any practical purpose whatsoever in view.
