Plausible Reasoning

Famous quotes containing the words plausible and/or reasoning:

“The idea that information can be stored in a changing world without an overwhelming depreciation of its value is false. It is scarcely less false than the more plausible claim that after a war we may take our existing weapons, fill their barrels with cylinder oil, and coat their outsides with sprayed rubber film, and let them statically await the next emergency.”
—Norbert Wiener (1894–1964)

“Reasoning is the pastime of my whole household, and all this reasoning has driven out Reason.”
