Obvious

Famous quotes containing the word obvious:

    Women have had the vote for over forty years and their organizations lobby in Washington for all sorts of causes; why, why, why don’t they take up their own causes and obvious needs?
    Dorothy Thompson (1894–1961)

    It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage: which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    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)
