Steven Weinberg Quotes

«Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion.»
«The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.»
«The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless.»
Author: Steven Weinberg | Keywords: comprehensible
«Maybe nature is fundamentally ugly, chaotic and complicated. But if it's like that, then I want out.»
Author: Steven Weinberg | Keywords: chaotic
«An expert is a person who avoids the small errors while sweeping on to the grand fallacy.»
«I think one of the great historical contributions of science is to weaken the hold of religion. That's a good thing.»
«This doesn't mean that they commit themselves to the view that this is all there is. Many scientists (including me) think that this is the case, but other scientists are religious, and believe that what is observed in nature is at least in part a result of God's will.»
«We know how many mistakes we've made.»
«If (the antiproton) had not been discovered, the foundations of physics really would have crumbled.»
