  • “Of course they do, when scientists go around saying crazy things like a pound of feathers weighs the same as a pound of gold.”

  • “Maybe science should go back to bringing us less of the AIDS and climate change, and more of the polio vaccines and atom bombs.”

  • “The saddest part is they'll never even believe this study.”
