Sheep/science

Famous quotes containing the words sheep and/or science:

    You shall not watch your neighbor’s ox or sheep straying away and ignore them; you shall take them back to their owner.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 22:1.

    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)
