Thomas Huxley
  • Science has fulfilled her function when she has ascertained and enunciated truth.

  • Science reckons many prophets, but there is not even a promise of a Messiah.

  • Science and literature are not two things, but two sides of one thing.

  • Ecclesiasticism in science is only unfaithfulness to truth.

  • In science, as in art, and, as I believe, in every other sphere of human activity, there may be wisdom in a multitude of counsellors, but it is only in one or two of them.
