Smile Re: Quotes

Bored with these signature quotes now.
Park them here and look for new ones

"The universe is not only stranger than we know,
it is stranger than we can know"
Arthur C Clarke

There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know.
There are known unkowns. That is to say, there are things we know we don't know.
But, there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know.
-- Rumsfield

One must know the extent of the box before thinking outside of it, and one needn't know what is right to say what is wrong.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
