“Earlier research has shown that poor blood flow can damage these parts of the brain. So one theory is that exercise may prevent damage and might even help repair these areas by increasing blood flow.” MayHelpingMightPoorBrainBloodTheoryExerciseResearchAreasFlowDamageBlood Flow Author:Bill Vaughan
“In America, much foreign policy seems contrived to be an exercise in political theory with no attention to history whatsoever. Yet there's a great reverence for history - though it's history as thumb-sucking, security blanket-nibbling self-congratulation.” SelfSeemsAmericaPoliticalAttentionSecurityPolicyTheoryExerciseReverenceForeign PolicyCongratulationsThumbsBlanketPolitical TheoryNibbling Author:Simon Schama
“It is easier taking the beaten path than making our way over bogs and precipices.

“Unquestionably the truth or fallacy of the theory of the survival of the soul is by far the most tremendous question that can exercise the human mind. The more you think of it, the more all other questions seem to sink into utter insignificance, for only if survival be true, can the Universe be rationalized at all.” IfsThinkingMindHumansSoulSeemsUniverseTheoryExerciseSurvivalBeing TrueHuman MindFallacyInsignificance Author:Ernest MacBride
“In arriving at the relevant theory about the specifics of our faculty of vision we will presumably use our eyes to gather relevant data. Based on such data we come to know about the optic nerve, the structure of our eyes, the rods and cones, etc., so as to explain how it is that vision gives us reliable access to the shapes and colors of objects around us. In reliably arriving at that theory we thus exercise the very faculty whose reliability is explained by the theory. There is no vice in this sort of circularity.” KnowsGivingUseEyeVisionObjectsColorTheoryExerciseShapesStructureVicesAccessDataEtcFacultyNervesRelevantArrivingReliabilityConesSpecificsCircularity Author:Ernest Sosa
