Validity Quotes - Page 4

• What is the fundamental hypothesis of science, the fundamental philosophy? We stated it in the first chapter: the sole test of the validity of any idea is experiment. ... If we are told that the same experiment will always produce the same result, that is all very well, but if when we try it, it does not, then it does not. We just have to take what we see, and then formulate all the rest of our ideas in terms of our actual experience.

• Si el hallazgo de monedas, medallas, urnas y otros monumentos de personas famosas, o ciudades o utensilios, se admiten como pruebas incuestionables de que tales personas o cosas han tenido un ser en tiempos pasados, ciertamente se puede permitir que esas petrificaciones tengan la misma validez y evidencia de que han existido antiguamente tales vegetales o animales. Estas son verdaderamente Antigüedades Auténticas que no pueden ser falsificadas, los Sellos, e Impresiones, y Caracteres de la Naturaleza que están más allá del Alcance y Poder del Ingenio e Invención Humana, y son verdaderos Caracteres universales legibles para todos los Hombres racionales.

• No fossil is buried with its birth certificate. That, and the scarcity of fossils, means that it is effectively impossible to link fossils into chains of cause and effect in any valid way... To take a line of fossils and claim that they represent a lineage is not a scientific hypothesis that can be tested, but an assertion that carries the same validity as a bedtime story-amusing, perhaps even instructive, but not scientific.

• A scientist's life, the author says, is indeed conflictual, formed by battles, defeats, and victories: but the adversary is always and only the unknown, the problem to be solved, the mystery to be clarified. It is never a matter of civil war; even though of different opinions, or of different political leanings, scientists dispute each other, they compete, but they do not battle: they are bound together by a strong alliance, by the common faith "in the validity of Maxwell's or Boltzmann's equations," and by the common acceptance of Darwinism and the molecular structure of DNA.

• From the beginning, there has been a tension in the reception of the Kantian idea of autonomy. If you emphasize the 'nomos' (the law), then you get one picture: the objectivity of ethics. If you emphasize the 'autos' - the self - you get the idea that we make the law. Kant never hesitated in his choice between the two emphases. He emphasizes the nomos (the universal and objective validity of the law).
