I think that's what distinguishes Schmidt really. In the movies now so much of what is appealing to an audience is the dramatic or has to do with science fiction and Schmidt is simply human. There's no melodrama there's no device It's just about a human being.

Nobody climbs mountains for scientific reasons. Science is used to raise money for the expeditions but you really climb for the hell of it.

Books are the money of Literature but only the counters of Science.

My mom introduced me to science-fiction.

If there existed no external means for dimming their consciences one-half of the men would at once shoot themselves because to live contrary to one's reason is a most intolerable state and all men of our time are in such a state.

When I look upon seamen men of science and philosophers man is the wisest of all beings when I look upon priests and prophets nothing is as contemptible as man.

What I would say to the young men and women who are beset by hopelessness and doubt is that they should go and see what is being done on the ground to fight poverty not like going to the zoo but to take action to open their hearts and their consciences.

Until the men of action clear out the talkers we who have social consciences are at the mercy of those who have none.

The grounding in natural sciences which I obtained in the course of my medical studies including preliminary examinations in botany zoology physics and chemistry was to become decisive in determining the trend of my literary work.

Because I am not formally trained in the medical sciences I can bring in new ideas to AIDS research and the cross-fertilization of ideas from different fields could be a valuable contribution to finding the cure for AIDS.

Medical science has proven time and again that when the resources are provided great progress in the treatment cure and prevention of disease can occur.

In the sick room ten cents' worth of human understanding equals ten dollars' worth of medical science.

Bachelors have consciences married men have wives.

Men love to wonder and that is the seed of science.

Love is too young to know what conscience is.

The changes in our life must come from the impossibility to live otherwise than according to the demands of our conscience not from our mental resolution to try a new form of life.

Literature is made upon any occasion that a challenge is put to the legal apparatus by conscience in touch with humanity.

I object to a legal approach when settling questions of science or scientific behavior.

Legal abortion will never rest easy on this nation's conscience.

I think mistakes are the essence of science and law. It's impossible to conceive of either scientific progress or legal progress without understanding the important role of being wrong and of mistakes.

People are getting smarter nowadays they are letting lawyers instead of their conscience be their guide.

In those parts of the world where learning and science has prevailed miracles have ceased but in those parts of it as are barbarous and ignorant miracles are still in vogue.

We are learning more about the humanity of the unborn child. Science and truth support the prolife movement.

Perhaps to the uninformed it may appear unaccountable that a man should be able to retain in his memory such a variety of learning but the close alliance with each other of the different branches of science will explain the difficulty.
