Pierre-Simon Laplace Quotes:

Ocupation: Mathematician

Life: March 23, 1749 - March 5, 1827

Birthday: March 23

Death: March 5

[Science] dissipates errors born of ignorance about our true relations with nature, errors the more damaging in that the social order should rest only on those relations. TRUTH! JUSTICE! Those are the immutable laws. Let us banish the dangerous maxim that it is sometimes useful to depart from them and to deceive or enslave mankind to assure its happiness.
