Our continents unification is at hand and we must stand to account.
Society rests upon conscience, not upon science.
The accounts that history presents have to be paid. Past has to be reconciled with present in the life of a nation. History is an insistent force: the past is what put us where we are. the past cannot be put behind until it is settled with.
When science starts to be interpretive it is more unscientific even than mysticism.
Science is public, not private, knowledge.
You've got to exercise. Your health account, your bank account, they're the same thing. The more you put in, the more you can take out.
I have shown that those who deplore Artificial Intelligence are also those who deplore the evolutionary accounts of human mentality: if human minds are non-miraculous products of evolution, then they are, in the requisite sense, artifacts, and all their powers must have an ultimately mechanical explanation. We are descended from macros and made of macros, and nothing we can do is beyond the power of huge assemblies of macros.
Science owes more to the steam engine than the steam engine owes to science.
With reference to the narrative of events, far from permitting myself to derive it from the first source that came to hand, I did not even trust my own impressions, but it rests partly on what I saw myself, partly on what others saw for me, the accuracy of the report always being tried by the most severe and detailed tests possible.

Human science is an uncertain guess.
I think that time moves slower in painting. And maybe that accounts for a lot of the anxiety around painting in the last 40 or 50 years.
If the universe had a beginning, its beginning, by the very condition of the cases, was supernatural; the laws of Nature cannot account for their own origin.
I was working in financing. I was buying and selling stocks for a market-maker on the options floor at the Pacific Stock Exchange. He took me under his wing and was training me to take over his accounts. That's the career I had embarked on, at the time.
I have a thought for Nicolas Sarkozy, you know my loyalty on his account, but I profess it too for Jacques Chirac.
Science has fulfilled her function when she has ascertained and enunciated truth.
In a Union of 15 now, you must take into account the sensibilities of everyone.
There's two lanes running down this road which ever side your on, accounts for where you want to go or what you're running from.
If I sign up for Facebook and want my account destroyed, it is impossible. They keep tabs on you; there will always be a trace.
