• Al principio, el hombre no tenía un poder de análisis o de síntesis parecido al de la araña, o incluso al de la abeja melífera; tenía una aguda sensibilidad a las fuerzas superiores. El fuego le enseñó secretos que ningún otro animal pudo aprender; el agua corriente probablemente le enseñó aún más, sobre todo en sus primeras lecciones de mecánica; los animales ayudaron a educarlo, confiándose en sus manos por el mero hecho de alimentarse, y llevando sus cargas o suministrándole su ropa; las hierbas y los granos fueron academias de estudio.

• A whole generation of veteran composers has never taken a stand or provided an example and has produced in the music academies generations of docile workers for the music industry.

• When I came to Harvard, there were no tenured women except one, who was in a chair reserved for a woman. It's still an uphill battle, and I encountered great sexism in parts of my career, but I have to say that things are a lot better than they used to be. There are many women today doing wonderful work all over the academy.

• I'm a member of the Recording Academy and I see the way it works and even with the whole voting process it's broken down into specific categories. There are Pop categories and Dance and Rock and Metal and Film and Score and everything else. Basically when you are voting you are urged not to vote in the category that you don't know anything about.

Quizá lo primero que uno debería exigirle a su arma es que sea injusta.

• La química ejerce sobre el algebrista la misma influencia estimulante y sugestiva que una visita a la Royal Academy o a los viejos maestros puede ejercer sobre Browning o Tennyson. De hecho, me parece que existe una homología exacta entre la pintura y la poesía, por un lado, y la química moderna y el álgebra moderna, por otro. En la poesía y el álgebra tenemos la idea pura elaborada y expresada a través del vehículo del lenguaje, en la pintura y la química la idea envuelta en materia, dependiendo en parte de procesos manuales y de los recursos del arte para su debida manifestación.

• Every climate scientist has his or her own views on some issues that differ from the mainstream in detail. But the broad findings of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) have general support amongst scientists with relevant specialist expertise. The broad wisdom of the IPCC is strongly contested by a small number, and a small minority, of reputed climate scientists. It is not contested by the large majority of specialists, and by the leaders of the relevant learned academies in the countries of great scientific accomplishment.
