Famous quotes containing the words word, sense and/or induction:
“I always begin at the left with the opening word of the sentence and read toward the right and I recommend this method.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“None of them has
the sense of evil that I have,
evil that jaw breaker,
that word-wife.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“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)
