Famous quotes containing the words induction and/or rule:
“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)
“Some rule out of a lust for ruling; others, so as not to be ruled:Mto these it is merely the lesser of two evils.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
