Neither science nor the politics in power nor the mass media nor business nor the law nor even the military are in a position to define or control risks rationally.

Science is not about control. It is about cultivating a perpetual condition of wonder in the face of something that forever grows one step richer and subtler than our latest theory about it. It is about reverence not mastery.

The conscious purpose of science is control of Nature its unconscious effect is disruption and chaos.

Many writers upon the science of political economy have declared that it is the duty of a nation first to encourage the creation of wealth and second to direct and control its distribution. All such theories are delusive.

I've always seen the world through the eyes of a scientist. I love the predictable outcomes that science gives us the control over the world that that can render.

This means that to entrust to science - or to deliberate control according to scientific principles - more than scientific method can achieve may have deplorable effects.

I was so sad from losing two of my dogs and my mother. I had this vision of all these animals sitting behind bars. They had no control and were scared. That's why I got into fostering and adopting animals out.

I look at my people and I look at those who control them - the political elite. And the sad thing is that the elites are just not interested in the welfare of the people.

No matter how old and glorious the models sad indeed is the woman who sees fashion as a means of self-expression rather than an agent of social control.

I have women coming up to me and saying: 'I love your character! She's so empowered. She takes control she gets what she wants.' That's another side of her. And I respect that in Joan. She says and does things that I would never allow myself to do.
