Imagi-Natives: ...for an imaginative life!

[Quote No.4471] Need Area: Mind > Learn
"If any human being earnestly desire to push on to new discoveries instead of just retaining and using the old; to win victories over Nature as a worker rather than over hostile critics as a disputant; to attain, in fact, clear and demonstrative knowledge instead of attractive and probable theory; we invite him as a true son of Science to join our ranks.

[Quote No.37951] Need Area: Mind > Learn
"[In a search for truth, try to be open but skeptical because this is not our natural tendency which is for quick, superficially supported conclusions, prejudice and confirmation bias:] The human understanding when it has once adopted an opinion draws all things else to support and agree with it. And though there be a greater number and weight of instances to be found on the other side, yet these it either neglects and despises, or else-by some distinction sets aside and rejects, in order that by this great and pernicious predetermination the authority of its former conclusion may remain inviolate." - Francis Bacon

"[As each individual, especially those who are philosophically inclined, gains a much greater understanding of the variety, depth and nuances involved in the definitions of terms involved in complex subjects like religion and politics, the relative opinion and understanding about these subjects can become much deeper and subtler as reflected in the following statement:] A little philosophy inclineth man’s mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men’s minds about to religion." - Francis Bacon
(1561–1626), English philosopher, known as one of the leading figures in natural philosophy and in the field of scientific methodology. He was also 1st Viscount St Alban PC, and a statesman who served as Attorney General and Lord Chancellor of England under King James I.

"Boldness is ever blind, for it sees not dangers and inconveniences; whence it is bad in council though good in execution. The right use of the bold, therefore, is, that they are never commander in chief, but serve as seconds under the direction of others. For in council it is good to see dangers, and in execution not to see them unless they be very great." - Sir Francis Bacon
