“Science is based on the possibility of objectivity, on the possibility of different people checking out for themselves the observations made by others. Without that possibility, there is no empirical principle capable of deciding between different arguments and theories.” PeopleMadeDifferentPrinciplesPossibilityTheoryCapableArgumentObservationDifferent PeoplesObjectivityChecking Out Author:Jose Padilha
“Biochemists and biologists who adhere blindly to the Darwinism theory search for results that will be in agreement with their theories and consequently orient their research in a given direction, whether it be in the field of ecology, ethology, sociology, demography (dynamics of populations), genetics (so-called evolutionary genetics), or paleontology. This intrusion of theories has unfortunate results: it deprives observations and experiments of their objectivity, makes them biased, and, moreover, creates false problems.” ProblemGivenResultsKnowledgeFieldsTheoryResearchPopulationExperimentsObservationAgreementUnfortunateEcologySociologyObjectivityGeneticsDynamicsBiasedBiologistIntrusionPaleontologyDemography Author:Pierre-Paul Grasse

“Don't get seduced by your own stuff. Don't get high on your own supply. The hardest thing as a filmmaker is when you're watching a film that you've worked on for several years. You know every frame so intimately that holding lots of the objectivity of a new viewer who has just seen it for the first time is the hardest thing. Every aesthetic decision you make - and you make thousands of them every day, have to - in theory, must be done from you being a blank slate. You almost have to run a program, like a mind wipe, every time you watch the movie.” KnowsYearsMindFirstsDoneRunningFilmStuffDecisionWatchesTheoryFirst TimeProgramHardestFilmmakerAestheticBlankViewersHardest ThingWipeObjectivityGetting HighSlateDecisions You MakeBlank Slates Author:James Cameron
