• Cuando el número de factores que entran en juego en un complejo fenomenológico es demasiado grande, el método científico fracasa en la mayoría de los casos. Baste pensar en el tiempo atmosférico, en cuyo caso la predicción incluso para unos días antes es imposible. Sin embargo, nadie duda de que nos enfrentamos a una conexión causal cuyos componentes causales conocemos en su mayor parte. Los sucesos en este ámbito están fuera del alcance de una predicción exacta debido a la variedad de factores que intervienen, no a una falta de orden en la naturaleza.

  Albert Einstein

• I have seen some astrologers who predicted wonderful things; but I have no reason to believe they predicted them only from the stars, or anything of the sort. In many cases it is simply mind-reading. Sometimes wonderful predictions are made, but in many cases it is arrant trash.

• La gente me pregunta cuáles son mis predicciones para el mundo editorial y cómo lo digital está cambiando las cosas, y yo les digo que mi única predicción real es que todo está cambiando. Amazon, Google y todas esas cosas probablemente no sean el enemigo. El enemigo ahora mismo es simplemente negarse a entender que el mundo está cambiando.

  Neil Gaiman

• The choice, as Wells once said, is the Universe-or nothing. . . . The challenge of the great spaces between the worlds is a stupendous one; but if we fail to meet it, the story of our race will be drawing to its close. Humanity will have turned its back upon the still untrodden heights and will be descending again the long slope that stretches, across a thousand million years of time, down to the shores of the primeval sea.

  Arthur C. Clarke

• The universe will finally become a ball of radiation, becoming more and more rarified and passing into longer and longer wave-lengths. The longest waves of radiation are Hertzian waves of the kind used in broadcasting. About every 1500 million years this ball of radio waves will double in diameter; and it will go on expanding in geometrical progression for ever. Perhaps then I may describe the end of the physical world as-one stupendous broadcast.

• Desde el momento en que abandonaron la Tierra, su propio peso y el del Proyectil y los objetos que contenía, experimentaron una disminución progresiva. . . . Por supuesto, es bastante claro que esta disminución no podría ser indicada por una balanza ordinaria, ya que el peso para equilibrar el objeto habría perdido precisamente tanto como el objeto mismo. Pero una balanza de resorte, por ejemplo, en la que la tensión de la bobina es independiente de la atracción, habría dado fácilmente el equivalente exacto de la pérdida.

• They have likewise discovered two lesser stars, or satellites, which revolve around Mars, whereof the innermost is distant from the center of the primary exactly three of his diameters, and the outermost five: the former revolves in the space of ten hours, and the latter in twenty-one and a half, so that the squares of their periodical times are very near in the same proportion with the cubes of their distances from the center of Mars; which evidently shows them to be governed by the same Law of Gravitation that influences the other heavenly bodies.
