I'm 15 and L-O-V-E science! It's my favorite class and I want to become a botanist, etc. So what are some cool quotes from scientists or about their studdies? Like evolution or anything! They are for my AOL instant messenger profile if that makes a diference! Awesome! Thanks!

Yay for science lovers! Here are some of my favorites from the web page below.

In Science the credit goes to the man who convinces the world, not to the man to whom the idea first occurred.
Sir William Osler (1849-1919) Canadian physician.

You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself.
Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) Italian physicist and astronomer.

The scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, and if nature were not worth knowing, life would not be worth living.
Jules Henri Poincaré (1854-1912) French mathematician.

I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale.
Marie Curie (1867 - 1934)
