Ariadne: You might have the rest of the team convinced to carry on with this job, but they don't know the truth. Cobb: Truth? What truth? Ariadne: The truth that at any minute, you might bring a freight train through the wall. The truth that Mal is b...
It is interesting that the U.S. has this very strong proportion of the population that rejects scientific conclusions about the age of the Earth and about evolutionary relationships between species, including humans.
That knowledge which is popular is not scientific.
If a conclusion is not poetically balanced, it cannot be scientifically true.
philosophizing Science is scientifically what so called Philosophy .
He who is a slave of truth is a free man.
The truth is a heavy burden that few care to carry.
Truth starts with truth and ends with truth.
All truth is God's truth.
You can recognize a small truth because its opposite is a falsehood. The opposite of a great truth is another truth.
I preach there are all kinds of truth, your truth and somebody else's. But behind all of them there is only one truth and that is that there's no truth.
There are also two kinds of truths: truth of reasoning and truths of fact. Truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible; those of fact are contingent and their opposite is possible.

Physical vision - one might say scientific vision - brings about a metaphysical shift in the observer's view of reality as a whole. The geography of the earth, or the structure of the solar system, are in an instant utterly changed, and forever. The ...
The earth in its rapid motion round the sun possesses a degree of living force so vast that, if turned into the equivalent of heat, its temperature would be rendered at least one thousand times greater than that of red-hot iron, and the globe on whic...
No fossil is buried with its birth certificate. That, and the scarcity of fossils, means that it is effectively impossible to link fossils into chains of cause and effect in any valid way... To take a line of fossils and claim that they represent a l...
The intangible, as you can guess, creates some decidedly strange and perceived dichotomies for scientific interpretations. Ask a scientist what the definition of electricity is and he might rattle off, “It is the physical phenomena arising from the...
So Yoda sounds like our best bet as an energy source. But with world electricity consumption pushing 2 terawatts, it would take a hundred million Yodas to meet our demands. All things considered, switching to Yoda power probably isn't worth the troub...
