Science is a firstrate ordsprog

en Science is a first-rate piece of furniture for a man's upper chamber, if he has common sense on the ground floor.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes

en If I could leave this body with one wish, it would be that we never give up that search for common ground, ... The politics of common ground will not be found on the far right, or on the far left. That is not where most Americans live. We will only find it on the firm middle ground, based on common sense and shared values.

en Common sense told us it was going to happen. Quite often we feel we cannot act without hard science. Now we've got some science.

en Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manne
  Thomas Henry Huxley

en Common sense always speaks too late. Common sense is the guy who tells you ought to have had your brakes relined last week before you smashed a front end this week. Common sense is the Monday morning quarterback who could have won the ball game if he had been on the team. But he never is. He's high up in the stands with a flask on his hip. Common sense is the little man in a gray suit who never makes a mistake in addition. But it's always somebody else's money he's adding up.

en Science is nothing, but trained and organized common sense.
  Thomas Henry Huxley

en It was all done at the same time. We sort of arranged the whole thing and cut it in half. A good example is an artist who does two canvases. He paints an abstract painting and then splits them. He shows the public the first piece and has them get used to that first piece. Then he gets the second piece and lets them get used to it, and then he puts them together and lets them see how they make sense together. So they make sense separately, but they also make sense together.

en We're trying to find a common ground to where we'd all rate it the same thing. There's still going to be some subjectivity to it, but we're trying to eliminate as much of it as we can.

en Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense.
