Quote:- The aim of science is to discover and illuminate truth. And that, I take it, is the aim of literature, whether biography or history... It seems to me, then, that there can be no separate literature of science.

Quote:- The aim of science is to seek the simplest explanations of complex facts. We are apt to fall into the error of thinking that the facts are simple because simplicity is the goal of our quest. The guiding motto in the life of every natural philosopher should be, 'Seek simplicity and distrust it.

Quote:- The American mathematician Jeffrey Weeks analysed the statistics of these fluctuations for manifolds with a variety of topologies. One possibility fitted the data very closely, leading the media to announce that the universe is shaped like a football (US: soccer ball). This was an inevitable metaphor for a shape that goes back to Poincaré: the dodecahedral space. In the early twenty-first century footballs were made by sewing or gluing together 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons to make what mathematicians call a truncated icosahedron – an icosahedron with the corners cut off. An icosahedron is a regular solid with 20 triangular faces, arranged five to a corner. The dodecahedron, which has 12 pentagonal faces, gets into the act because the centres of the faces of an icosahedron form a dodecahedron, so both solids have the same symmetries. ‘Football’ is more media-friendly, albeit technically imprecise.

Quote:- The animal merely makes a bed, which he warms with his body in a sheltered place; but man, having discovered fire, boxes up some air in a spacious apartment, and warms that, instead of robbing himself, makes that his bed, in which he can move about divested of more cumbrous clothing, maintain a kind of summer in the midst of winter, and by means of windows even admit the light and with a lamp lengthen out the day.
