      S16) Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit; and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman’s cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club

      Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-95), English biologist<O

          S18) Science is a branch of pure learning which aims at intellectual satisfaction. But
          it is not the only branch of learning, and we must ask next what it is that distinguishes science from other branches. Is the distinction in the subject-matter that it studies it, or in the manner in which it studies it, or both together, or possibly, something quite different?t[/align]

            S19) The great development of science of the 19th century is connected with its divorce from philosophy; and the changes are so great that it is perhaps hardly right to regard the science of today as the same thing as the science before that century[/align]

                [align=left]S21) Science has always treated its laws as mathematical abstraction, description after the fact, rather than laws in the judicial sense that determine and direct behavior[/align]

                  S22) Science is not static. Science is exploding exponentially all around us. If you count the number of scientific articles being published, you will find that the sheer volume of science doubles every decade or so. Innovation and discovery are changing the entire economic, political, and social landscape

                    S23) Science discovers patterns, symmetries, and mathematical laws to interconnect a multiplicity of individual events. In order to uncover the laws, regularities, and pattern of nature, it is necessary first to abstract phenomena from the real world and consider laws in isolation from the contingencies of everyday life

                              S28) Science is dedicated to seeing any fact as it is, and being open to free communication with regard not only to the fact itself, but also to the point of view from which it is interpreted
