Imagi-Natives: ...for an imaginative life!

[Quote No.64884] Need Area: Mind > Learn
"[Freedom of thought, speech, etc., and the need for skepticism:] Nullius in verba [Latin for 'on the word of no one' or 'take nobody's word for it'. The Royal Society website explains the motto thus: 'It is an expression of the determination of Fellows to withstand the domination of authority and to verify all statements by an appeal to facts determined by experiment.']" - Royal Society motto
John Evelyn and other fellows of the Royal Society chose the motto soon after the founding of the Society. The society introduced the world's first journal exclusively devoted to science in 1665, 'Philosophical Transactions', and in so doing originated the peer review process now widespread in scientific journals. Its founding editor was Henry Oldenburg, the society's first secretary.
