Some Jonathan Miller's quotes. Goto "Jonathan Miller's quotation" section for more.A lot of high-level scientists are in fact people of almost universal interest.

Tags: Deep, Fault, OftenI wasn't driven into medicine by a social conscience but by rampant curiosity.
Tags: Conscience, Curiosity, SocialPeople are already self-selected by the time they've decided to become scientists.
Tags: Become, Decided, TimePeople can't draw now and don't feel it's necessary. Art students don't seem to want to draw.
Tags: Art, Seem, StudentsThe burden of the past is only, I think, oppressive when you've got to go on the experience of the avant garde.
Tags: Burden, Experience, PastThe thing about science is that it's an accurate picture of the world.
Tags: Accurate, Picture, ScienceWhat I should have been, you see, is a neurologist.
Tags: Life, Pictures, ThemselvesAs we know from the work of certain fundamental physicists, people like Einstein were very dependent upon conjuring up visual images in order to imagine things which otherwise were not easily formulated.
Tags: Imagine, Order, WorkBeing a doctor has taught me a lot about directing. You're doing the same thing: You're reconstructing the manifold of behavior to the point where an audience says, yes, that's exactly like people I know.
Tags: Behavior, Doctor, PointI became startled by the extraordinary difference between something whose surface is completely invisible which only makes itself present by virtue of what it reflects, and a window, which doesn't make itself apparent at all, in the ideal case.
Tags: Between, Difference, MakesI spend a lot of my time trying to draw the attention of actors to the minute and subtle details of human behavior, which was the sort of thing I was looking at when I was a neurologist.
Tags: Human, Time, TryingI was trained as a neurologist, and then I went into the theater, and if you're brought up to think of yourself as a biological scientist of some sort, pretty well everything else seems frivolous by comparison.
Tags: Else, Pretty, YourselfI'm not against asking the audience to work, but I think what you have now is a sort of gratuitous deconstruction as a result of a fashion of literary deconstructionism indicating that there are no meanings.
Tags: Against, Fashion, WorkIt's not that Shakespeare is frivolous, but you spend your time just getting people to dress up in other people's costumes and pretending to be people that they're not, and you think, after the years go by, well, what on earth was all that about?
Tags: After, Getting, TimeNow, that is in a way also what scientists are trying to do they're trying to get people to see that the world can be represented in an alternative way and that it's right.
Tags: Scientists, TryingSomeone like Einstein was quite clearly a moralist, and he had a very highly developed political vision and was very spiritual in his way, and there are many biologists and physicists of the first order who are like that.
