Quotes

 * Why isn't "use common sense" an official policy? It doesn't need to be; as a fundamental principle, it is above any policy. (see WP:COMMONSENSE)


 * False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science, for they often long endure; but false views, if supported by some evidence, do little harm, as every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness; and when this is done, one path towards error is closed and the road to truth is often at the same time opened (Darwin, The descent of man, and selection in relation to sex, p. 385).


 * A model is a lie that helps you see the truth. --Howard Skipper quoted in


 * ...our truth is the intersection of independent lies. (p. 423)


 * Time is the school in which we learn.
 * Time is the fire in which we burn.


 * My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
