“No part of the aim of normal science is to call forth new sorts of phenomena; indeed those that will not fit the box are often not seen at all. Nor do scientists normally aim to invent new theories, and they are often intolerant of those invented by others.” TheoryFitNormalScientistAimBoxes Book:The Structure of Scientific Revolutions: 50th Anniversary Edition Source: The Structure of Scientific Revolutions: 50th Anniversary Edition
“I have ever had the single aim of justice in view. No judge who is influenced by any other consideration is fit for the bench. 'Do equal and exact justice,' is my motto, and I have often said to the grand jury, 'Permit no innocent man to be punished, but let no guilty man escape.” MenSaidJusticeViewsJudgingFitEqualAimInnocentGuiltyConsiderationPermitMottoJuryBenchesMy MottoInnocent ManGrand Jury Author:Isaac Parker
“Bohr’s standpoint, that a space-time description is impossible, I reject a limine. Physics does not consist only of atomic research, science does not consist only of physics, and life does not consist only of science. The aim of atomic research is to fit our empirical knowledge concerning it into our other thinking. All of this other thinking, so far as it concerns the outer world, is active in space and time. If it cannot be fitted into space and time, then it fails in its whole aim and one does not know what purpose it really serves.” IfsThinkingKnowsWorldLifeDoeWholePurposeSpaceKnowledgeImpossibleFailingFailureFitResearchConcernAimActivePhysicsDescriptionRejectsTime And SpaceStandpointOuter WorldsEmpiricismSpace Time Author:Erwin Schrodinger
“The aim of education is to fit children for the position in life which they are hereafter to occupy. Boys are to be sent out intothe world to buffet with its temptations, to mingle with bad and good, to govern and direct.... girls are to dwell in quiet homes, amongst a few friends; to exercise a noiseless influence, to be submissive and retiring. There is no connection between the bustling mill-wheel life of a large school and that for which they are supposed to be preparing.... to educate girls in crowds is to educate them wrongly.” WorldChildrenHomeSchoolGirlBoysInfluencePositionFitExerciseQuietDirectConnectionsAimCrowdsTemptationSupposed To BeWheelsRetiringEducatePreparingHereafterMillsBuffetsSubmissiveFew FriendsAim Of Education Author:Elizabeth Missing Sewell
“There are many levels of organization in nervous systems. Hence we aim to explain mechanisms at one level in terms of properties and dynamics at a lower level, and to fit that in with the properties at the higher levels.” TermLevelsHigherFitOrganizationAimPropertyNervousMechanismNervous SystemHigher LevelDynamics Author:Patricia Churchland
