About This Quote

Science is the process of obscuring the marvelous with explanations. Science, as a whole, is wonderful and we definitely need it to make our lives better. However, we do not always need or want to know how something works or what is actually going on. Sometimes, we just want to enjoy the miraculous.

As such, some people believe that science as it is today has become too complicated and is very often used as an excuse for those who don’t know what else to do. However, some scientists feel that science has become too simple and uninteresting as well. Giving us an explanation for everything does not make us feel more in awe of the world around us.
