We can change it, bit by bit, plank by plank, though meanwhile there is nothing to carry us along but the evolving conceptual scheme itself. The philosopher’s task was well compared by Neurath to that of a mariner who must rebuild his ship on the open sea.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    The force of the blow depends on the resistance. It is sometimes better not to struggle against temptation. Either fly or yield at once.
    —F.H. (Francis Herbert)
