“A theory is something nobody believes, except the person who made it. An experiment is something everybody believes, except the person who made it.”
Albert Einstein
“It is the theory that decides what can be observed”
“A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
“Scientific theory is a contrived foothold in the chaos of living phenomena.”
Wilhelm Reich
“Facts do not 'speak for themselves', they are read in the light of theory”
Stephen Jay Gould
“We believe evolution should be taught as a scientific theory that is open to critical scrutiny, not as a sacred dogma that can't be questioned.”
Casey Luskin
“The more success the quantum theory has, the sillier it looks”
