Science isn’t all about numbers and equations…

There have been several known scientists like Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman, Carl Sagan and others who have not just inspired minds with their terrific researches and inventions but also inspired many a budding brain to become scientists like them or at least pursue science as a subject. Their take of the world is often very different from any normal person and that’s what makes their words even more inspiring. So without wasting any more time let’s serve you with some brilliant quotes that famous scientists have said now and then….

4. I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. – Isaac Newton
5. The black holes of nature are the most perfect macroscopic objects there are in the universe: the only elements in their construction are our concepts of space and time. – Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar
6. Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less. ― Marie Curie
7. The reward of the young scientist is the emotional thrill of being the first person in the history of the world to see something or to understand something. Nothing can compare with that experience. – Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin
