As an exercise, here's what I find as suitable substitute quotes in quick Googling, to demonstrate just how little effort is required to top these (in true Civ VI style, making no effort whatsoever to double-check their veracity):
Cartography: "Maps codify the miracle of existence.” -
Nicholas Crane
Flight: "The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.” - J.M. Barrie, "Peter Pan"
Alternative version: "The airplane stays up because it doesn't have time to fall" - Orville Wright
Military Science: "Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology." - Rebecca West [I actually prefer the 'Churchill' quote, but they'd need to find the correct attribution or note 'misattributed' - though the link given for suggesting this is false itself provides no basis for that]
Telecommunications: This can probably just be attributed to William H. White. Or, for a quote more specifically relevant to the tech:
"Advances in the technology of telecommunications have proved an unambiguous threat to totalitarian regimes everywhere." - Rupert Murdoch
Not sure which tech the newspaper quote relates to.
Scientific Theory: "I think a strong claim can be made that the process of scientific discovery may be regarded as a form of art. ... A well constructed theory is in some respects undoubtedly an artistic production." - Ernest Rutherford
Alternative: “A mere inference or theory must give way to a truth revealed; but a scientific truth must be maintained, however contradictory it may appear to the most cherished doctrines of religion.” - David Brewster
Nuclear Fission (I think this is the source of the watchmaker quote): "The fundamental point in fabricating a chain reacting machine is of course to see to it that each fission produces a certain number of neutrons and some of these neutrons will again produce fission." - Enrico Fermi
Alternative: "France generates a significant part of its energy requirements from fission reactors and these have achieved a perfect safety record. We build ours all differently. " - Wilson Greatbach.
Archery: "A good archer is not known by his arrows, but his aim." - English proverb
Education: The sentiment of the actual quote is fine - simply use the correct version.
The Churchill quote can be amended
The Space Race quote is fine, and widely-known. It's not factually accurate, but nor's the Garrison Keller quote about air conditioning (much as I hate that quote, it's not for its technical inaccuracy).
Great Zimbabwe: "Among the gold mines of the inland plains between the Limpopo and Zambezi rivers there is a fortress built of stones of marvelous size, and there appears to be no mortar joining them.... This edifice is almost surrounded by hills, upon which are others resembling it in the fashioning of stone and the absence of mortar, and one of them is a tower more than 12 fathoms high. The natives of the country call these edifices Symbaoe, which according to their language signifies court." - Vicente Pegado
To add insult to injury, this latter is actually in the Wikipedia entry for Great Zimbabwe.
While we're at it, let's fix Kilimanjaro:
"From former experience I had learned that it is useless to dream of an ascent of Kilimanjaro, and a prolonged stay above the snow-line, without the aid of a companion familiar with mountaineering. ... The relationship is so intimate and so constant, there is such close community of interests and experiences, that… there must be the most perfect agreement in tastes and habits of mind between the two comrades" - Hans Meyer
Alternative: “Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain 19,710 feet high, and is said to be the highest mountain in Africa. Its western summit is called the Masai 'Ngaje Ngai', the House of God. Close to the western summit there is a dried and frozen carcas of a leopard. No one has explained what the leopard was seeking at that altitude.” - Ernest Hemingway
