"If it moves, it’s biology; if it changes color, it’s chemistry; if it breaks, it’s physics; if it puts you to sleep, it’s statistics."   Bob Hogg


 

"Statistics is the most important science in the whole world, for upon it depends the practical application of every other (science) and of every art: the one science essential to all political and social administration, all education, for it only gives exact results of our experience.  To understand God's thoughts, we must study statistics, for these are the measure of His purpose."   Florence Nightingale


 

"Religion without science is blind; science without religion lame."--Albert Einstein


 

"Well, this is good news from medical ethicists, I suppose. 'Legalizing doctor-assisted suicide does not lead to a 'slippery slope' of excess deaths among the vulnerable poor, uninsured, elderly or other patients, according to a U.S. study in the October issue of the Journal of Medical Ethics.' Many people have long been of the opinion that a death rate of 100 percent is excessive. It is reassuring to learn that euthanasia does not exacerbate the problem."Richard John Neuhaus


 

"The ability to think statistically will one day be as important for efficient citizenship as the ability to read and write."   H. G. Wells
