Humanity has the stars in its future, and that future is too important to be lost under the burden of juvenile folly and ignorant superstition.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

And above all things, never th...

And above all things, never think that you're not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

It is change, continuing chang...

It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.

It is not only the living who are killed in war.

When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.

There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

To insult someone we call him ...

To insult someone we call him 'bestial. For deliberate cruelty and nature, 'human' might be the greater insult.

I don't believe in an afterlife, so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse.

All sorts of computer errors are now turning up. You'd be surprised to know the number of doctors who claim they are treating pregnant men.

A subtle thought that is in error may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value.

If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them.

The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

Suppose that we are wise enoug...

Suppose that we are wise enough to learn and know - and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains better than ignorance.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

Science doesn't purvey absolute truth. Science is a mechanism... for testing your thoughts against the universe.

Isaac Asimov 420 quotes

Life is glorious when it is happy; days are carefree when they are happy; the interplay of thought and imagination is far superior to that of muscle and sinew.

To make discoveries, you have to be curious about why the universe is the way it is.

The most hopelessly stupid man is he who is not aware he is wise.
