Letter "R" » Ruth Hubbard Quotes
«Without words to objectify and categorize our sensations and place them in relation to one another, we cannot evolve a tradition of what is real in the world.»
Author: Ruth Hubbard
(Biologist)
«Every theory is a self-fulfilling prophecy that orders experience into the framework it provides.»
«The mythology of science asserts that with many different scientists all asking their own questions and evaluating the answers independently, whatever personal bias creeps into their individual answers is cancelled out when the large picture is put together. This might conceivably be so if scientists were women and men from all sorts of different cultural and social backgrounds who came to science with very different ideologies and interests. But since, in fact, they have been predominantly university-trained white males from privileged social backgrounds, the bias has been narrow and the product often reveals more about the investigator than about the subject being researched.»
Author: Ruth Hubbard
(Biologist)
«To overturn orthodoxy is no easier in science than in philosophy, religion, economics, or any of the other disciplines through which we try to comprehend the world and the society in which we live.»
«Even if you become fluent in a second language, you don't understand it the same as the language you grew up with and that your mother spoke to you in.»
Author: Ruth Hubbard
(Biologist)
«When they [people of minority languages] read it in their heart language for the first time, they are inevitably blown away.»
Author: Ruth Hubbard
(Biologist)
«We're at the cutting edge. The purely oral approach is newer and experimental in that it's not happening in the same way in every place.»
Author: Ruth Hubbard
(Biologist)
