"Scientific societies are as yet in their infancy. . . . It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fitche laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished."
- Bertrand Russell, "The Impact of Science on Society", 1953, pg 49-50
"People need to be aware that there is a range of models that could explain the observations… For instance, I can construct you a spherically symmetrical universe with Earth at its center, and you cannot disprove it based on observations… You can only exclude it on philosophical grounds… What I want to bring into the open is the fact that we are using philosophical criteria in choosing our models. A lot of cosmology tries to hide that"
― George Ellis (cosmologist), “Profile: George F. R. Ellis,” Scientific American, October 1995, Vol. 273, No.4, p. 55
"the scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. one must be sane to think clearly but one can think deeply and be quite insane." - Nikola Tesla
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”
― Nikola Tesla
