Complete Induction

Famous quotes containing the words complete and/or induction:

    A masterpiece is ... something said once and for all, stated, finished, so that it’s there complete in the mind, if only at the back.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    One might get the impression that I recommend a new methodology which replaces induction by counterinduction and uses a multiplicity of theories, metaphysical views, fairy tales, instead of the customary pair theory/observation. This impression would certainly be mistaken. My intention is not to replace one set of general rules by another such set: my intention is rather to convince the reader that all methodologies, even the most obvious ones, have their limits.
    Paul Feyerabend (1924–1994)
