Science is interesting, and if you don’t agree you can fuck off.
By Richard Dawkins, quoting a former editor of New Scientist (here’s at least one source). I don’t think this quote contains any deep wisdom as such, but it made me laugh. Actually you could replace the word science with any other noun and it would still make grammatical sense.
Good point. What I meant is that this quote could be used to defend anything. “Being irrational is interesting, and if you don’t agree you can fuck off.”

That is a consequence of the meaning of the term “grammatical sense”, not a property of the particular sentence under discussion.
