“Contempt for science could perhaps depend on the fact that, science hasn't been able to solve any of our basic problems, for example the environmental pollution or the problems with HIV and AIDS. This is the worst disease of our time, and scientists are lost. I believe that many people are disappointed with science when the answers we need are not delivered.” PeopleNeedsBelieveFactsProblemAbleLostI BelieveAnswersWorstExampleDependsDiseaseScientistEnvironmentalSolveAidsOur TimeDisappointedContemptPollutionHivEnvironmental Pollution Author:Bjorn Ulvaeus
“We were told in one lecture that it was possible to immunize against diphtheria and tetanus by the use of chemically treated toxins, or toxoids. And the following lecture, we were told that for immunization against a virus disease, you have to experience the infection, and that you could not induce immunity with the so-called "killed" or inactivated, chemically treated virus preparation. Well, somehow, that struck me. What struck me was that both statements couldn't be true. And I asked why this was so, and the answer that was given was in a sense, 'Because.'

“I am convinced that when Nietzsche came to Switzerland and went insane, it was not because of venereal disease, though he did have this disease. Rather, it was because he understood that insanity was the only philosophic answer if the infinite-personal God does not exist.” IfsDoeAnswersDiseaseUnderstoodInfiniteConvincedInsaneInsanitySwitzerlandPhilosophic Book:How should we then live?: the rise and decline of western thought and culture Source: How should we then live?: the rise and decline of western thought and culture
“Why do some die and some live? The answer was clearly, that on the whole the best fitted live. From the effects of disease the most healthy escaped; from enemies, the strongest, swiftest, or the most cunning; from famine, the best hunters or those with the best digestion; and so on. Then it suddenly flashed upon me that this self-acting process would necessarily improve the race, because in every generation the inferior would inevitably be killed off and the superior would remain-that is, the fittest would survive.” SelfWholeScienceDiesProcessAnswersActingRaceEnemyGenerationsEffectsEvolutionHealthyDiseaseSurvivalSuperiorsStrongestInferiorsHuntersCunningFamineDigestion Author:Alfred Russel Wallace
“Whether or not we have personality disturbances, whether or not we have the ability to overcome deficiencies of early environment, is like the answer to the question whether or not we shall be struck down by a dread disease: "it's all a matter of luck."
