“Different persons growing up in the same language are like different bushes trimmed and trained to take the shape of identical elephants. The anatomical details of twigs and branches will fulfill the elephantine form differently from bush to bush, but the overall outward results are alike.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“There is not a single rule, however plausible, and however firmly grounded in epistemology, that is not violated at some time or other.

On the contrary, we see that they are necessary for progress.”
—Paul Feyerabend (1924–1994)
