Famous quotes containing the words direct and/or induction:
“He had robbed the body of its taint, the world’s taunts of their sting; he had shown her the holiness of direct desire.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“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)
