Never Do Anything Against Conscience Even If

Science Has Gone A Long Way Toward Helping Man To Free Himself From The Burden Of Hard Labor; Yet, Science Itself Is Not A Liberator. It Creates Means, Not Goals. It Is Up To Men To Utilize Those Means To Achieve Reasonable Goals.

The Belief In An External World Independent Of The Perceiving Subject Is The Basis Of All Natural Science. Since, However, Sense Perception Only Gives Information Of This External World Or Of "physical Reality" Indirectly, We Can Only Grasp The Latter By Speculative Means. It Follows From This That Our Notions Of Physical Reality Can Never Be Final. We Must Always Be Ready To Change These Notions - That Is To Say, The Axiomatic Basis Of Physics - In Order To Do Justice To Perceived Facts In The Most Perfect Way.

Science Is The Process Of Making Obviously Erroneous Ideas Less Obviously Erroneous.

Everyone Sits In The Prison Of His Own Ideas; He Must Burst It Open, And That In His Youth, And So Try To Test His Ideas On Reality.

My Position Concerning God Is That Of An Agnostic.
