Abhijit NaskarDon't study science. Play with it.
About This Quote
John Updike once wrote that “There's no greater enemy of science than science itself.” While that may be true, there is no greater enemy of science than people who spend more time studying it than playing with it. Science is something that can be played with. It can be used to invent new things, like the Internet and the smartphone. It can be used to make products better, like the iPad or the iPhone. And, of course, it can be used for research and discovery, like the Human Genome Project or finding out about planets outside of our solar system.
