I have an idealistic view of science as a liberalising and progressive force for humanity.

We have found that where science has progressed the farthest the mind has but regained from nature that which the mind put into nature.

Chastity is the cement of civilization and progress. Without it there is no stability in society and without it one cannot attain the Science of Life.

False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science for they often endure long but false views if supported by some evidence do little harm for every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness.

While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who's out there just for the experience.

It has been wisely observed by the greatest of modern thinkers that mankind has progressed more rapidly in every other respect than in morality.

The humanists' replacement for religion: work really hard and somehow you'll either save yourself or you'll be immortal. Of course that's a total joke and our progress is nothing. There may be progress in technology but there's no ethical progress whatsoever.

I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion as organized in its Churches has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world.

Scientific progress makes moral progress a necessity for if man's power is increased the checks that restrain him from abusing it must be strengthened.

The power to question is the basis of all human progress.
