Young people ask me if this country is serious about science. They aren't thinking about the passport that they will hold but the country that they must rely on for support and encouragement.

I didn't invent forensic science and medicine. I just was one of the first people to recognize how interesting it is.

People think that computer science is the art of geniuses but the actual reality is the opposite just many people doing things that build on eachother like a wall of mini stones.

I decry the current tendency to seek patents on algorithms. There are better ways to earn a living than to prevent other people from making use of one's contributions to computer science.

I cannot say how strongly I object to people using other people's writing as research. Research is non-fiction especially for horror fantasy science fiction. Do not take your research from other people's fiction. Just don't.

The rise of Google the rise of Facebook the rise of Apple I think are proof that there is a place for computer science as something that solves problems that people face every day.

Experimental science is fascinating but I don't want to do it. I want other people to do it and I'll read about it.

Anthropology is the science which tells us that people are the same the whole world over - except when they are different.

People and especially theologians should try to familiarize themselves with scientific ideas. Of course science is technical in many respects but there are some very good books that try to set out some of the conceptual structure of science.

When people think about computer science they imagine people with pocket protectors and thick glasses who code all night.

I think people are realizing that engineering and science are extremely good degrees to get and you'll be very highly paid once you've got them.

Enough people have now mentioned Bill Nye the Science Guy to me that I now desperately avoid it all costs.

Millions of people were inspired by the Apollo Program. I was five years old when I watched Apollo 11 unfold on television and without any doubt it was a big contributor to my passions for science engineering and exploration.

Man has to awaken to wonder - and so perhaps do peoples. Science is a way of sending him to sleep again.

I had people in my life who didn't give up on me: my mother my aunt my science teacher. I had one-on-one speech therapy. I had a nanny who spent all day playing turn-taking games with me.

'Snow White' is an old fairy tale so obviously the idea of vanity and obsession with youth is long-standing. With today's science people have become crazy with trying to move their face around. It's bizarre.

Everything is fraught with danger. I love technology and I love science. It's just always all in the way you use it. So there's no - you can't really blame anything on the technology. It's just the way people use it and it always has been.

The conscience of the world is so guilty that it always assumes that people who investigate heresies must be heretics just as if a doctor who studies leprosy must be a leper. Indeed it is only recently that science has been allowed to study anything without reproach.

The march of science and technology does not imply growing intellectual complexity in the lives of most people. It often means the opposite.

People think of the inventor as a screwball but no one ever asks the inventor what he thinks of other people.

We seem to have a compulsion these days to bury time capsules in order to give those people living in the next century or so some idea of what we are like.

You know they just don't make big movie stars the way they used to maybe because the system has changed the studio system but it's sad to see people like Jimmy Stewart go all the giants of the past.

The last few years have been my happiest. I'm happy in the years that most people are blue and sad and waiting to die. I don't feel that a bit. Smiling has a lot to do with it. You can just lift your spirits by smiling a little bit.

I think it's sad that movies and television have caused the theatre to fade as a popular art form. I hope to get young people into the theatre and expose them to Shakespeare.
