"The second law of thermodynamics holds, I think, the supreme position amongthe laws of nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of theUniverse is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much the worsefor Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation -well, those experimentalists do bungle things up sometimes. but if your theoryis found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope;there is nothing to do but to collapse in deepest humiliation."
-- Arthur S. Eddington (British Astrophysicist, 1882-1944) in The natureof the Physical World (1928)
If it's all right with Dirac, it's all right with me.
-- Enrico Fermi, on being told that there was direct experimental evidence that helium-3 nuclei obey Fermi-Dirac statistics.
Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that'snot why we do it.
-- Richard Feynman.

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
