Science must
have originated in the feeling that something was wrong.
-- Thomas Carlyle
1795-1881, Scottish
Philosopher, Author
There are two
kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth
that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the
second is art. Without art science would be as useless as a
pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without
science art would become a crude mess of folklore and
emotional quackery.
-- Raymond Chandler
1888-1959, American Author
The true
science and study of man, is man himself.
-- Pierre Charron
1541-1603, French Philosopher
Science in the
modern world has many uses; its chief use, however, is to

The ordinary

1874-1936, British Author
The latest
refinements of science are linked with the cruelties of the
Stone Age.

Our lifetime
may be the last that will be lived out in a technological
society.

Researchers,
with science as their authority, will be able to cut
[Animals] up, alive, into small pieces, drop them from a
great height to see if they are shattered by the fall, or
deprive them of sleep for sixteen days and nights
continuously for the purposes of an iniquitous monograph...
''Animal trust, undeserved faith, when at last will you turn
away from us? Shall we never tire of deceiving, betraying,
tormenting animals before they cease to trust us?''
