Reflection/science

Famous quotes containing the words reflection and/or science:

“With some people solitariness is an escape not from others but from themselves. For they see in the eyes of others only a reflection of themselves.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

“It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
