The cry of the conductor 'Clapham Road', awakened me from my dreaming: but I spent part of the night in putting on paper at least sketches of these dream forms. This was the origin of the 'Structural Theory'. August Kekulé

My object will be, first, to show by what connections the history of the fossil bones of land animals is linked to the theory of the earth and why they have a particular importance in this respect. Georges Cuvier

It may be fair to say that these were the first experiments to give physicists in the United States a conviction of the fundamental validity of the quantum theory. Arthur Compton

That kind of reasoning sounds rather convincing, but when you find in experiments that the wavelength is actually changed you can see that there must be something wrong with the wave theory… Arthur Compton

I have little hesitation in saying that as a result a sickly pall now hangs over the big bang theory. As I have mentioned earlier, when a pattern of facts becomes set against a theory, experience shows that it rarely recovers. Fred Hoyle

The history of science knows scores of instances where an investigator was in the possession of all the important facts for a new theory but simply failed to ask the right questions. Ernst Mayr

All my time has been dedicated to writing a great theory about these phenomena… and attempting the experiments indicated by this theory, all of which succeeded. André-Marie Ampère

Climate change is the perfect pseudoscientific theory for a big government politician who wants more power. Why? Because it is a theory that can never be disproven. Ted Cruz
