“Refuser la relation mathématique entre la vitesse moyenne de circulation sur un réseau autoroutier et l'accidentalité fait partie des attitudes de déni qui permettent peut-être de conserver une forme puérile d'estime de soi, mais qui sont à la fois ridicules et manipulatoires.”
Claude Got, La violence routière - Des mensonges qui tuent

Abhijit Naskar
“Humanities without sciences are helpless, sciences without humanities are lifeless.”
Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock
