Vive la science

'The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not "Eureka!" ("I found it!") but rather "hmm....that's funny..."' -- Isaac Asimov

"In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite." -- Paul Dirac

"Végre nem butulok tovább (Finally, I will not become any dumber)." -- Paul Erdös (Hungarian mathematician, 1913-1996) epitaph for himself.

Science research quotes again.
