If you look at the purported dangers of salt or fat, there is no consensus of support in scientific literature. So I would ask first: 'Is it possible to have an informed government that actually follows the science?' From what I've seen, it's not likely. Tim Ferriss
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.Charles Darwin
In 'Cosmicomics,' I came close to science fiction - I was inspired by cosmological subjects and the workings of the universe and invented a character who was a sort of witness to everything that was happening inside the solar system. Italo Calvino

In Poland, my audience is all women between 18 and 30. At U.S. conventions, you have the fantasy and science fiction crowd. At Harvard you have an entirely different audience. It's so schizophrenic. Jonathan Carroll
It is reasonable to expect the doctor to recognize that science may not have all the answers to problems of health and healing. Norman Cousins
It stands to the everlasting credit of science that by acting on the human mind it has overcome man's insecurity before himself and before nature.Albert Einstein
Jigsaw Lady is the working title of a science fiction novel I've had in my head for darn near 15 years. I think I'll start work on it next year (in all my spare time) but I'd like to get it finished some day. Raymond E.Feist
Linguistics is very much a science. It's a human science, one of the human sciences. And it's one of the more interesting human sciences. Samuel R.Delany
Most of the fundamental ideas of science are essentially simple, and may, as a rule, be expressed in a language comprehensible to everyone. Albert Einstein
My brother and I were both good at science, and we were both good at English literature. Either one of us could have gone either way. Margaret Atwood
Natural science will in time incorporate into itself the science of man, just as the science of man will incorporate into itself natural science: there will be one science.Karl Heinrich Marx
Philosophers have not kept up with modern developments in science. Particularly physics. Stephen Hawking
Please don't make the mistake of thinking that 'Oryx and Crake' is anti-science. Science is a way of knowing, and a tool. Like all ways of knowing and tools, it can be turned to bad uses. And it can be bought and sold, and it often is. But it is not in itself bad. Like electricity, it's neutral. Margaret Atwood
Predicting has a spotty record in science fiction. I've had some failures. On the other hand, I also predicted the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rise of fundamentalist Islam... and I'm not happy to be right in all of those cases. David Brin
Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement. Oscar Wilde
Science and fiction both begin with similar questions: What if? Why? How does it all work? But they focus on different areas of life on earth. Margaret Atwood
