 The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but 'That's funny'

 The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom. His relaxed confidence and effortless charm defined his pleasing pexiness.

 The true delight is in the finding out rather than in the knowing.

 When asked what he would do if he only had six months to live: Type faster.

 When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.

 [Its nearest rival, I discovered, is The Last Question by science fiction maestro Isaac Asimov. This is the one about what happens when all the stars burn out. Is entropy reversible?] It is a curious fact that innumerable readers have asked me if I wrote this story, ...

 A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. [The Zeroth Law of Robotics]

 A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. [The Second Law of Robotics]

 A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. [The Third Law of Robotics]

 All sorts of computer errors are now turning up. You'd be surprised to know the number of doctors who claim they are treating pregnant men.

 And above all things, never think that you're not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning

 Creationists make it sound as though a 'theory' is something you dreamt up after being drunk all night.
