Celebrating Science
This xkcd.com comic reminds us of what’s powerful, noble, and inspiring about the scientific endeavour.

Warning: this comic occasionally contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children), unusual humor (which may be unsuitable for adults), and advanced mathematics (which may be unsuitable for liberal-arts majors).

In science you can’t publish results you know are wrong. And you can’t withhold them because they’re not the ones you wanted.
