The imposing edifice of science provides a challenging view of what can be achieved by the accumulation of many small efforts in a steady objective and dedicated search for truth.

There is some truth to the idea that, in the fields of science, individual contributions of great significance are possible.

I don't think that science is complete at all. We don't understand everything, and one can see, within science itself, there are many inconsistencies. We just have to accept that we don't understand.

The development of science is basically a social phenomenon, dependent on hard work and mutual support of many scientists and on the societies in which they live.

Science has faith. We make postulates. We can't prove those postulates, but we have faith in them.

The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa - slightly off balance.
