Mary Shelley Quotes

Science is our last and greatest frontier.

Science has always been my preoccupation and when you think a breakthrough is possible, it is terribly exciting.

All human progress is preceded by new questions

I'm very interested in science.

In any case, whenever technical progress opened a new window into the surrounding world, I felt the urge to look through this window, hoping to see something unexpected.

Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.

Science does not know its debt to imagination.

Science is the key to our future, and if you don't believe in science, then you're holding everybody back.

You can't be on the cusp of innovation and at the forefront of technology if you're wearing blinders. If you don't have an exploration program where you're exploring your world here on Earth, underwater, and in space, then you're wearing blinders and handicapping yourself.

Scientists are the true driving force of civilization.

Twentieth century man must boldly reach out... And purposefully strive to discover the hidden secrets of our universe.

Curiosity is vital to the growth of our society.

I think the scientific goals and the technical challenges were the two things that equally motivated me.

I see no difference between scientific exploration and human exploration.

Curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Greater even than the greatest discovery is to keep open the way to future discovery.

It is the great beauty of our science, chemistry, that advancement in it, whether in a degree great or small, instead of exhausting the subjects of research, opens the doors to further and more abundant knowledge, overflowing with beauty and utility.

A good scientist is a person in whom the childhood quality of perennial curiosity lingers on. Once he gets an answer, he has other questions.

Without science, there would be no such hope.

The first steps in the path of discovery, and the first approximate measures, are those which add most to the existing knowledge of mankind.

To inquire and to create; these are the grand centres around which all human pursuits revolve, or at least to these objects do they all more or less directly refer.

I am a great believer in research and innovation.

Nature yields her most profound secrets to the person who is determined to uncover them.

None but those who have experienced them can conceive of the enticements of science.

I mean, how would anyone learn anything if they weren't curious? How would scientists make discoveries? -- We all have the right to be different, don't we?
