Occurrences which according to received theories ought not to happen, are the facts which serve as clues to new discoveries

As new discoveries are causing all-penetrating physical lights so to abound as that, as has been said, we shall soon not know where in the world to get any darkness, so our new facilities for every sort of communication work to reduce privacy much within its former limits.

The Atonement of Jesus Christ outweighs, surpasses, and transcends every other mortal event, every new discovery, and every acquisition of knowledge, for without the Atonement all else in life is meaningless.

New discoveries in science and their flow of new inventions will continue to create a thousand new frontiers for those who still would adventure.

The most extraordinary thing about trying to piece together the missing links in the evolutionary story is that when you do find a missing link and put it in the story, you suddenly need all these other missing links to connect to the new discovery. The gaps and questions actually increase – it’s extraordinary.

There is no harm in doubt and skepticism, for it is through these that new discoveries are made.

We should come home from adventures, and perils, and discoveries every day with new experience and character.

apparent contradiction … is often the opportunity for new discovery in science; and it even may be said that the absence of apparent contradiction is due to our want of perception, since our knowledge of laws and causes is so small compared to their total sum.

The seeds of great discoveries are constantly floating around us, but they only take root in minds well-prepared to receive them.

I’ve got to find a compromise where I don’t feel compromised. I’ve got to find something equally good that they don’t feel uncomfortable with. At a certain point, it’s no longer about what I thought was right, but it’s about this new discovery that happens with the actors. It’s nice when the actor is also a writer.

It is impossible to overstate the imporance of problems in mathematics. It is by means of problems that mathematics develops and actually lifts itself by its own bootstraps… Every new discovery in mathematics, results from an attempt to solve some problem.

There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now. All that remains is more and more precise measurement.

Erwin Schrodinger has explained how he and his fellow physicists had agreed that they would report their new discoveries and experiments in quantum physics in the language of Newtonian physics. That is, they agreed to discuss and report the non-visual, electronic world in the language of the visual world of Newton.

Universal orthodoxy is enriched by every new discovery of truth: what at first appeared universal, by wishing to stand still, sooner or later becomes a sect.

The important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‘Eureka!’ but ‘That’s funny…’

The Christian church has a long history of gradually absorbing scientific perspectives and new discoveries. It seems to me that, in fact, that has been one of the strengths of Christianity – it has ultimately had great flexibility in absorbing new information about the world that we get from science.

I don’t believe medical discoveries are doing much to advance human life. As fast as we create ways to extend it we are inventing ways to shorten it.

The most important fundamental laws and facts of physical science have all been discovered, and these are now so firmly established that the possibility of their ever being supplemented in consequence of new discoveries is exceedingly remote.

Possession of a program with unique analytic capabilities puts a scientist in as much of a priveleged position to make new discoveries as the possession of a powerful telescope.

The world is not bound to get better as a result of new discoveries in science and technology, nor is it bound to get worse, there will simply be new opportunities for making it better or worse.

The most important of my discoveries have been suggested to me by failures.

The new discovery of a 3.3 billion barrel oil deposit off Norway‘s coast cements that nation‘s claim to being Europe‘s second largest oil producer.

Progress in science depends on new techniques, new discoveries and new ideas, probably in that order.

Every new discovery is assumed at once into the sum total of knowledge, and with that ceases in a sense to be a discovery; it dissolves into the whole and disappears, and one must have a trained scientific eye even to recognize it after that.

One doesn’t discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore.

I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies. To be certain, every day there can be a revelation or a new discovery. I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.

There are many, many books I’ve read and I think this is quite naГЇve actually because we all just try to uncover something. But the universe at large is full of questions that we still don’t know anything about and there will be always young people brilliant who are going to make new discoveries.
