If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs. - in the "New Statesman" magazine [Science] If a scientist were to cut his ear off, no one would take it as evidence of a heightened sensibility. - J.B.S. [Science] It is high time that laymen abandoned the misleading belief that scientific enquiry is a cold dispassionate enterprise, bleached of imaginative qualities, and that a scientist is a man who turns the handle of discovery; for at every level of endeavour scientific research is a passionate undertaking and the Promotion of Natural Knowledge depends above all on a sortee into what can be imagined but is not yet known. - The Times Literary Supplement (London), 1963 October 25 (p. 850) [Science]
