1 " Why do we put up with it? Do we like to be criticized? No, no scientist enjoys it. Every scientist feels a proprietary affection for his or her ideas and findings. Even so, you don’t reply to critics, Wait a minute; this is a really good idea; I’m very fond of it; it’s done you no harm; please leave it alone. Instead, the hard but just rule is that if the ideas don’t work, you must throw them away. "
― Carl Sagan , The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark
2 " It was one of those moments that no scientist can ever reduce to numbers, try as she might. "
― Anne Fortier , Juliet
