Quotes

"...any assumption that a conspiracy could exist among scientists to keep a widely current theory alive when it actually contains serious flaws is completely antithetical to the restless mind-set of the profession."

-- Francis Collins, The Language of God (2006)

"What is the difference between a cathedral and a physics lab? Are they not both saying: Hello?"

-- Annie Dillard, Teaching a Stone to Talk (1988)
