Scientists

person who use scientific methods to study in an area of interest

Scientists,in a broad sense, are persons engaged in the systematic activity to acquireknowledge.In a more restricted sense, a scientist is an individual who uses the scientific method.

Solvay conference,1911.
Scientists differ from ordinary mortals by their ability to admire loquacious and complicated delusions.
~Anatole France

  • Nothing compares with thelight wave.Even the very bestelectricity,even the bluest, yields eight thousand times less light than a ray of thesun.Soon the study of photoplasm will impart a new direction to methods of work. One can see how the pollen of photoplasm surges forth and conveys through tiny funnels the treasure received, carrying it into the pores of the skin. Not only the spaciousness of work areas but also proper access to light needs to be studied. Thesun’s rays should be appreciated as a universal treasure. A scientist who studies the topics above will also easily come to understand the flow of rays from other luminaries. 356.
    • Agni Yoga,Leaves of Morya’s Garden II(1925)
  • Should not a true understanding of life promote care for thefuturealong with thepresent?This is the immediate duty of every scientist. Until now scientists have dealt with life as finite — is it not now their mission to see life as extending intoInfinity?553.
  • The conditions of new scientific achievements must correspond to the demands of the future. If scientists would understand that the manifestation ofcontinuous expansionunderlies the growth of science, there would be no place for criminal antagonism. But We do not wish to upset their achievements — only to broaden them. Each scientist who understands thelaw of the expansionofconsciousnesshas already smashed the wall ofprejudice.427.
  • Scientists tend to resist interdisciplinary inquiries into their own territory.In many instances, such parochialism is founded on thefearthat intrusion from other disciplines would compete unfairly for limited financial resources and thus diminish their own opportunity for research.
  • Many people, including many important and well-respected scientists, just don’t want there to be anything beyond nature. They don’t want asupernaturalbeing to affect nature.
    • Michael Behe,molecular biologist, says in Darwin’s Black Box.
  • As it is claimed to be unphilosophical to inquire into first causes, scientists now occupy themselves with considering their physical effects. The field of scientific investigation is therefore bounded by physical nature. When once its limits are reached, enquiry must stop, and their work be recommenced. With all due respect to our learned men, they are like the squirrel upon its revolving wheel, for they are doomed to turn their "matter" over and over again. Science is a mighty potency, and it is not for us pigmies to question her. But the "scientists" are not themselves science embodied any more than the men of our planet are the planet itself. We have neither the right to demand, nor power to compel our "modern-day philosopher" to accept without challenge a geographical description of the dark side of themoon.But, if in some lunar cataclysm one of her inhabitants should be hurled thence into the attraction of our atmosphere, and land, safe and sound, at Dr. Carpenter's door, he would be indictable as recreant to professional duty if he should fail to set the physical problem at rest.
    For a man of science to refuse an opportunity to investigate any new phenomenon, whether it comes to him in the shape of a man from the moon, or a ghost from theEddyhomestead, is alike reprehensible. (5)
  • Scientists who believe they have adopted theAristotelian methodonly because they creep when they do not run from demonstrated particulars to universals, glorify this method of inductivephilosophy,and reject that ofPlato,which they treat as unsubstantial. Professor Draper laments that such speculativemysticsas Ammonius Saccas andPlotinusshould have taken the place "of the severe geometers of the old museum." (Conflict between Religion and Science, ch. i.) He forgets thatgeometry,of all sciences the only one which proceeds from universals to particulars, was precisely the method employed by Plato in his philosophy. As long as exact science confines its observations to physical conditions and proceedsAristotle-like, it certainly cannot fail. But notwithstanding that the world of matter is boundless for us, it still is finite; and thusmaterialismwill turn forever in this vitiated circle, unable to soar higher than the circumference will permit. The cosmological theory of numerals which Pythagoras learned from the Egyptian hierophants, is alone able to reconcile the two units, matter and spirit, and cause each to demonstrate the other mathematically. (7)
    If thePythagoreanmetempsychosis should be thoroughly explained and compared with the modern theory of evolution, it would be found to supply every "missing link" in the chain of the latter. But who of our scientists would consent to lose his precious time over the vagaries of the ancients.(9) The ancients knew more concerning certain sciences than our modern savants have yet discovered. Reluctant as many are to confess as much, it has been acknowledged by more than one scientist. (25) (Dr. A. Todd Thomson below)
  • Truly says Cudworth that the greatest ignorance of which our modern wiseacres accuse the ancients is their belief in the soul’s immortality. Like the old skeptic of Greece, our scientists—to use an expression of the same Dr. Cudworth—are afraid that if they admit spirits and apparitions they must admit a God too; and there is nothing too absurd, he adds, for them to suppose, in order to keep out the existence of God. The great body of ancient materialists, skeptical as they now seem to us, thought otherwise, andEpicurus,who rejected the soul's immortality, believed still in a God, andDemokritusfully conceded the reality ofapparitions.The preexistence and God-like powers of the human spirit were believed in by most all the sages of ancient days. (251)
  • Scientists today… have to be able to interpret their findings just as skillfully as they conduct their research. If not, a lot of priceless new knowledge will have to wait for a better man.
    • Wernher von Braunin his Introduction for Dagobert David Runes (ed.), A Treasury of World Science (1962), viii.
  • There is a noticeable general difference between the sciences andmathematicson the one hand, and thehumanitiesandsocial scienceson the other. It's a first approximation, but one that is real. In the former, the factors ofintegritytend to dominate more over the factors ofideology.It's not that scientists are more honest people. It's just thatnatureis a harsh taskmaster. You can lie or distort the story of theFrench Revolutionas long as you like, and nothing will happen. Propose a false theory inchemistry,and it'll be refuted tomorrow.
  • Clarke's First Law: When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
    • Arthur C. Clarke"Hazards of Prophecy: The Failure of Imagination" inProfiles of the Future(1962)
  • I have watched the#metoo campaignas avidly as anyone. I have gone to bed each night wondering who will be outed as asexual harasserin the morning, whether it will be another one of my political heroes or someone we all recognize frommainstream mediaorHollywood.We’ve seen many of these perpetrators lose jobs, be forced to resign, and face economic difficulty because of their abhorrent behaviors.
    But I have not gone to bed a single night in all these months wondering what scientist would be sacked in the morning because of his transgressions—let alone be publicly outed—because scientist-harassers rarely lose theirjobs.
  • Are people who engage in sexual misconduct actually making scientific advances that would not be made without them? I’d say it’s more likely that swifter, greater advances would have occurred if there were fewer perpetrators limiting opportunities for their victims. When part of your brain has to be occupied with workplace stress—from unwanted sexual advances to witnessing abuse between colleagues—you have less to give to your science.
    If we punish these perpetrators, especially by taking away their funding, won’t their trainees suffer? I wonder how many grad students would be better off, relieved of the pressures of working for a predator. As federal funding agencies grapple with this problem, they have begun to figure out solutions, such as assigning a new principal investigator if the original one can’t continue. It doesn’t kill the project or leave students and staff out of their jobs. Removing the perpetrator from a project also saves the pedigree of the trainees; few want their published work tainted with the name of a known sexual harasser.
  • So this is where we find ourselves today: In many professions sexual misconduct is now cause for dismissal. In the sciences, not so much. What’s more, many science workplaces use legal definitions of sexual harassment to set the standard forworkplace conduct.If that is the bar that has to be met for a disgusting behavior to be considered actionable by a university,research institute,orfield station,it is a high one. An enormous range of disrespectful and even frightening behavior can slip under that bar, even though it damages the careers of victims and bystanders, holding back scientific advancement.
  • Scientists anddoctorsto me, are at the leading edge of what all human beings do all of the time; which is to change, everything. We’ve never been satisfied with what we’re given. We don’t accept the earth as a given. We change ourbodychemistry,ourphysiology,ourbiology,our biochemistry. We clear the forest, we build our own environment, we climate control it... And, the interface between that impulse and the human body often is doctors, biologists, and biochemists.
  • What is a scientist after all? It is a curious person looking through a keyhole, the keyhole of nature, trying to know what's going on.
    • Jacques-Yves Cousteau(1971)Christian Science Monitor.21 July 1971; cited in: Alan F. Pater, Jason R. Pater (1972)What They Said in 1971: The Standard Source Book for the World's.p. 536
  • [S]cientists are required to back up their claims not with private feelings but with publicly checkable evidence. Theirexperimentsmust have rigorous controls to eliminate spurious effects. And statistical analysis eliminates the suspicion (or at least measures the likelihood) that the apparent effect might have happened by chance alone...
    • Richard Dawkins(1996)"Human gullibility beyond belief,— the “paranormal” in the media ".The Sunday Times.1996-08-25.
  • Scientists are just as vulnerable to wishful thinking, just as likely to be tempted by base motives, just as venal and gullible and forgetful as the rest of humankind. Scientists don't consider themselves to be saints; they don't even pretend to bepriests(who according to tradition are supposed to do a better job than the rest of us at fighting offhumantemptationandfrailty). Scientists take themselves to be just as weak and fallible as anybody else, but recognizing those very sources of error in themselves and in the groups to which they belong, they have devised elaborate systems to tie their own hands, forcibly preventing their frailties and prejudices from infecting their results.
  • So many people today — and even professional scientists — seem to me like someone who has seen thousands of trees but has never seen a forest.
    • Albert Einstein(1944) Letter to Robert A. Thorton, Physics Professor at University of Puerto Rico (7 December 1944)
  • The scientist is possessed by the sense of universalcausation.The future, to him, is every whit as necessary and determined as the past. There is nothing divine about morality, it is a purely human affair...
  • The genuine scientist is not moved by praise or blame, nor does he preach. He unveils the universe and people come eagerly, without being pushed, to behold a new revelation: the order, the harmony, the magnificence ofcreation!And as man becomes conscious of the stupendous laws that govern the universe in perfect harmony, he begins to realize how small he is. He sees the pettiness of human existence, with its ambitions and intrigues, its 'I am better than thou' creed. This is the beginning of cosmicreligionwithin him; fellowship and human service become his moral code. And without such moral foundations, we are hopelessly doomed.
  • Everyone here would die for the sake of truth. Everyone here lies constantly for the tiniest chance of personal gain. This is what it means to be a scientist.
  • We scientists are clever — too clever — are you not satisfied? Is four square miles in one bomb not enough? Men are still thinking. Just tell us how big you want it.
  • Untilscientific inquirycame of age, human beings could not comprehend their relationship to the physical world, so they invented their own explanations. These explanations tended to be simplistic and in many cases, harmful. For example, if one knows a tidal wave is approaching and chooses to stay and pray for deliverance rather than leaving, this could be detrimental to his/her survival...Scientistsask the question “what do we have here?” and then they proceed to do experiments to determine the nature of the physical world... What is considered appropriate behavior today may be considered un-sane in the future... Better values, ideals, and behavior cannot be fully realized while there is stillhunger,unemployment,deprivation,war,andpoverty.

  • My profession often gets bad press for a variety of sins, both actual and imagined:arrogance,venality,insensitivity to moral issues about the use of knowledge, pandering to sources of funding with insufficient worry about attendant degradation of values. As an advocate for science, I plead “mildly guilty now and then” to all these charges. Scientists are human beings subject to all the foibles and temptations of ordinary life. Some of us are moral rocks; others are reeds. I like to think (though I have no proof) that we are better, on average, than members of many other callings on a variety of issues central to the practice of good science: willingness to alter received opinion in the face of uncomfortabledata,dedication to discovering and publicizing our best and most honest account of nature's factuality, judgment of colleagues on the might of their ideas rather than the power of their positions.
  • I do not like to see all the fine boys turning to the study oflaw,instead of to the study of science or technology.…Japanwants no morelawyersnow; and I think the professions ofliteratureand ofteachinggive small promise. What Japan needs are scientific men; and she will need more and more of them every year.
  • By a recent estimate, nearly half the bills before theU.S. Congresshave a substantial science-technology component and some two-thirds of theDistrict of ColumbiaCircuit Court’s case load now involves review of action by federal administrative agencies; and more and more of such cases relate to matters on the frontiers oftechnology.
    If the layman cannot participate in decision making, he will have to turn himself over, essentially blind, to a hermetic elite.… [The fundamental question becomes] are we still capable of self-government and therefore freedom?
    Margaret Meadwrote in a 1959 issue ofDaedalusabout scientists elevated to the status ofpriests.Now there is a name for this elevation, when you are in the hands of—one hopes—a benevolentelite,when you have no control over your political decisions. From the point of view ofJohn Locke,the name for this isslavery.
    • Gerald Holton,quoted in 'Where is Science Taking Us? Gerald Holton Maps the Possible Routes', The Chronicle of Higher Education (18 May 1981). In Francis A. Schaeffer, A Christian Manifesto (1982), 80.
  • Humanity should study the foundations of heredity. But this will be possible only when science is liberated fromsuperstitionand limitation.... Indeed, scientists of limited mind can observe heredity only within the context of the family; in other words, within the most narrow limitations. They occasionally do observe those inherited traits that may appear even after several generations. But they cannot make the more sensitive observations, because they do not believe in reincarnation or in the Supermundane World. It is impossible to properly observe man within these narrow, ignorant limitations, but one may hope that science will free itself and will achieve true insights... The Thinker reminded, “Liberate science, hasten to remove its fetters.” (930)
  • People often talk about Macrocosm and microcosm, and at the same time, do not see their main foundations. They do not admit the existence of the primary energy, the Supermundane World and the spiritual basis of everything. What kind of Macrocosm could it be without basic foundations? It would be a poor ruin and the microcosm would be a pitifully deformed creature.... Some insightful scientists sense that even in their most brilliant discoveries something is lacking. They understand inwardly that the laws discovered by them are only partial and can be extended to new boundaries. But, since from their early childhood no one ever spoke to them about the law of the spirit, they do not find within themselves the courage to seek unlimited knowledge. Examples can be cited of serious researchers who concealed their broad observations. They were afraid to go beyond the boundaries of their limited science. In secret they read the works of great thinkers but would never admit to their own new paths. (934)
  • Scientists are supposed to live in ivory towers. Their darkrooms and their vibration-proof benches are supposed to isolate their activities from the disturbances of common life. What they tell us is supposed to be for the ages, not for the next election. But the reality may be otherwise.

  • Sciencefor its part speaks against the special importance of any object of science, including human beings.… Science as opposed to religion recognizes nothing sacred either outside man or within him. But collectively, science is the assertion of man over non-man, surely an unembarrassed claim to importance and rule. Yet as individuals, scientists are anonymous factors in the scientific enterprise, each one substitutable for another. For all science cares, scientists could as well be numbered as named.
    • Harvey Mansfield(2007)How to Understand Politics: What the Humanities Can Say to Science
  • Our problem is: What are the underlyingdesiresorwishes,that lead some scientists to insist upon mechanistic conceptions, and others equally eminent, to espouse some form of scientific vitalism? For inpsychology,as in other sciences, a materialistic or vitalistic bias may be found at the root of nearly all factional schools, or contentious groups. Sometimes, of course, the underlying desire relates solely to the advancement of the personal fortunes of the workers concerned; and such purely egoistic motives probably play a considerable part in the evolution of every scientific doctrine. In addition to this, however, originators and promulgators of conceptual systems of thought, nearly always possess hidden desires to push science in this direction or that, "for science's own sake". The goal selected is the one that accords most closely with the basic emotional set of the scientific agitator. And the emotional sets of scientists may be classified, broadly, into two elementary groups, materialistic and vitalistic.
  • A scientist is no more a collector and classifier of facts than a historian is a man who complies and classifies a chronology of the dates of great battles and major discoveries.

  • There must be no barriers forfreedom of inquiry.There is no place fordogmain science. The scientist is free, and must be free to ask any question, to doubt any assertion, to seek for any evidence, to correct any errors.

  • A scientist is happy, not in resting on his attainments but in the steady acquisition of fresh knowledge.
  • A scientist worthy of the name, above all amathematician,experiences in his work the same impression as an artist; his pleasure is as great and of the same nature.

  • The scientist does not study nature because it is useful to do so. He studies it because he takes pleasure in it, and he takes pleasure in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful it would not be worth knowing, and life would not be worth living. I am not speaking, of course, of the beauty which strikes the senses, of the beauty of qualities and appearances. I am far from despising this, but it has nothing to do with science. What I mean is that more intimate beauty which comes from the harmonious order of its parts, and which a pure intelligence can grasp.

  • A fundamental value in the scientific outlook is concern with the best availablemapofreality.Thescientistwill always seek a description of events which enables him to predict most by assuming least. He thus already prefers a particular form ofbehavior.If moralities are systems of preferences, here is at least one point at which science cannot be said to becompletelywithout preferences. Science prefers goodmaps.

  • In schools, for example, there are courses in the criticism of literature,art criticism,and so forth. The arts are supposed to be 'not real.' It is quite safe, therefore, to criticize them in that regard -- to see how a story or a painting is constructed, or more importantly, to critically analyze the structure of ideas, themes, or beliefs that appear, say, in the poem or work of fiction. When children are taught science, there is no criticism allowed. They are told, 'This is how things are.' Science's reasons are given as the only true statements about reality, with which no student is expected to quarrel. Any strong intellectual explorations or counter versions of reality have appeared in science fiction, for example. Here scientists, many beingscience-fictionbuffs, can channel their own intellectual questioning into a safe form. 'This is, after all, merely imaginative and not to be taken seriously.'

  • A certain scientist speaks of the mistakes in the books ofH. P. Blavatsky.I would like to ask him whether he has calculated as accurately the mistakes in the books of the past and contemporary scientists. InThe Secret Doctrinemany pages are full of quotations of the contradictory opinions and conclusions of the scientists and all of their inflated theories and hypotheses. And as for the person who repeats verbatim the words of the scientist mentioned above, I feel like saying, "Do not be a parrot!" Check this yourself, and if you have a chance, compare with the true TEACHING; but it is not advisable to cast into space something not verified by one's consciousness.
  • One outstanding American scientist when asked how he picturedheavengave a fine answer, "It is what scientists call the true world, and our earthly world is but its reflection." (One could have added—a dreadfully distorted reflection.) This is a truly Eastern explanation. Who knows, perhaps this scientist, alone in his bedroom with closed door, readThe Secret Doctrineand similar works of the greatCarriers of Light,who, even now, are so cruelly persecuted by ignorant representatives of our biped kingdom. Verily, the extinguishers of Light do not deserve to be called men; they are on an even lower level than the animals.
  • In science it often happens that scientists say, "You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken," and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.
    • Carl Sagan(1987) Keynote address at CSICOP conference, as quoted inDo Science and the Bible Conflict?(2003) by Judson Poling, p. 30
  • It is sometimes said that scientists are unromantic, that their passion to figure out robs the world of beauty and mystery. But is it not stirring to understand how the world actually works — that white light is made of colors, that color is the way we perceive the wavelengths of light, that transparent air reflects light, that in so doing it discriminates among the waves, and that the sky is blue for the same reason that the sunset is red? It does no harm to the romance of the sunset to know a little bit about it.
  • This is a classic case of what is often calledphysics envy,the disease among scientists where the behavioral biologists fear their discipline lacks the rigor of physiology, the physiologists wish for the techniques of the biochemists, the biochemists covet the clarity of the answers revealed by molecular biologists, all the way down the down until you get to the physicists, who confer only withGod.
    • Robert Sapolsky,The Trouble With Testosterone: And Other Essays on the Biology of the Human Predicament(New York: A Touchstone Book, Simon & Schuster, 1998), p. 152
  • I've been aware for some time of the shortcomings inherent in the sane, dispassionate thinking that we scientists advocate. People don’t pay any attention.
  • As a result of scientific man's creativity there arises an ordered, illumined, determined world, imprinted with the stamp of creative intellect, of pure reason and clear cognition. From the midst of the order and lawfulness we hear a new song, the song of the creature to the Creator, the song of the cosmos to its Maker.
  • When we speak of man, we have a conception of humanity as a whole, and before applying scientific methods to the investigation of his movement we must accept this as a physical fact. But can anyone doubt to-day that all the millions of individuals and all the innumerable types and characters constitute an entity, a unit? Though free to think and act, we are held together, like the stars in the firmament, with ties inseparable. These ties cannot be seen, but we can feel them. I cut myself in the finger, and it pains me: this finger is a part of me. I see a friend hurt, and it hurts me, too: my friend and I are one. And now I see stricken down an enemy, a lump of matter which, of all the lumps of matter in the universe, I care least for, and it still grieves me. Does this not prove that each of us is only part of a whole?
    • Nikola Tesla,The Problem of Increasing Human Energy(1900) ===
  • The scientific man does not aim at an immediate result. He does not expect that his advanced ideas will be readily taken up. His work is like that of the planter — for the future. His duty is to lay the foundation for those who are to come, and point the way. He lives and labors and hopes.

  • Today's scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality.

  • The scientists never make any money. They are always deluded into thinking that they live in a just universe that will reward them for their work and for their inventions. And this is probablythefundamental delusion that scientists tend to suffer from in our society.
  • The degree of scientific knowledge existing in an early period of society was much greater than the moderns are willing to admit but, it was confined to the temples, carefully veiled from the eyes of the people and opposed only to the priesthood.
    • Dr. A. Todd Thomson, the editor ofOccult Sciences,by Salverte quoted byH.P. Blavatsky,Isis Unveiled,Part One, Science, Ch. 1 (1877)
  • The older the scientist you choose to do your Ph.D. thesis with, the more likely you will find yourself working in a field that saw its better days a long time ago, possibly before you were born. Even when a mature scientist still has all his marbles, he often wants to put more bricks into an edifice that already has enough rooms.... Young professors in contrast are generally hired not for grandeur but because they represent a new intellectual thrust not present in a department, one with hopes of remaining lively over at least the next decade. Moreover, they are likely to have smaller research groups than more senior professors, around whom funds as well as stodgier minds tend to aggregate.
  • It seems that scientists are often attracted to beautiful theories in the way that insects are attracted to flowers — not by logical deduction, but by something like a sense of smell.
  • Scientists, animated by the purpose of proving they are purposeless, constitute an interesting subject for study.
  • No matter howhonestscientiststhinkthey are, they are still influenced by variousunconsciousassumptions that prevent them from attaining true objectivity.Expressed in a sentence,Fort's principle goes something like this:People with apsychologicalneedtobelievein marvels are no moreprejudicedand gullible than people with a psychological neednotto believe in marvels.
  • …it is shameful that there are so fewwomenin science... InChinathere are many, many women in physics. There is a misconception in America that women scientists are all dowdy spinsters. This is the fault of men. In Chinese society, a woman is valued for what she is, and men encourage her to accomplishments yet she remains eternally feminine.
