I often wonder how those who believe in every word of Aristotle fail to understand that it is they who defile Aristotle's glory and reputation. Galileo
don't give in to any authority, and no matter what credible theories are, they will never accept them unless they are examined by their own research first. This is nothingness. Turgenev (Russia):
The respect and worship of the ancients in Father and Son does not prevent them from correcting them themselves. This feature of humanism has resulted in the appearance of more and more supplementary and revised materials, but in the end it has drowned and overwhelmed those authorities, although the original intention of this new work is to maintain these authorities. [America] g? Dubs: Man and Nature in the Renaissance
It should not be forgotten that novel ideas that go beyond the framework of accepted ideas are often regarded as abnormal and sometimes even extremely unreasonable for a certain period of time. However, among those ideas that seem extremely unreasonable, some ideas often contain epoch-making things in scientific, social and historical practice. [Su] Grudinin: The Problem of Military Dialectics
unexpectedly allows those who know nothing about science to judge those who know science, so they act arbitrarily with the authority given to them. These are new things that can destroy the country. Galileo: Galileo
Only pedantic pedants demand that everything is inseparable from authority. [Germany] Goethe: "Goethe's aphorisms and thoughts"
Some people often quote the words of authorities to argue about an event to replace their poor understanding and knowledge. Schopenhauer:
The Theory of Existence Emptiness should not rely on one's authority, but on the truth. It is truth that makes people great, not man that makes truth great. [France] Roman? Roland: Roman? "memoirs of Roland"
our advice is: everyone should stick to the path he has blazed for himself, and not be intimidated by authority, constrained by the viewpoint of depending on the time, or confused by the current situation. [Germany] Goethe: The Collection of Goethe's Mottos and Thoughts
is authoritative. Without it, human beings can't live, but it brings as many mistakes as it brings truth. [Germany] Goethe:
In authoritative works, truth is compared to a river. If it is not endless, it will become a disgusting quagmire of consistency and tradition. Milton: Speech to the British Parliament in 1644
Without smashing the shackles of authority and tradition, any human progress is impossible. [French] Gide: Diary
Every great progress of knowledge of nature includes an absolute denial of authority. [English] trust? Huxley:
Non-religious people talk about religion. Science is called science precisely because it does not recognize idols, is not afraid to overthrow outdated old things, and listens carefully to the voice of practice and experience. [Su] Stalin: The Question of Leninism
Without critical analysis of the outdated principles and opinions of famous authorities, we can't make progress and advance science. This is true not only for military authorities, but also for Marxist classic writers. [Su] Stalin: "Reply to Comrade Racine"
Accepting an orthodox concept always means inheriting many unresolved contradictions. George? Orwell: The Writer and Leviathan
Astronomers always deal with the past, because it takes time for light to travel from one place to another. What they see is just the past, not the present. [America] ni? Howard: The Telescope Manual and Galaxy Map
holds the key to the future. Beyonson: Ibsen and His Plays
My statement is quite different from that of the predecessors on many issues, but I owe my knowledge to them and to those who pioneered this theory at first. Copernicus: Copernicus
A lot of scientific practice is a complex and consuming finishing work, but only in this way can we consolidate the foundation established by the latest theoretical breakthrough and make necessary preparations for the subsequent breakthroughs. [America] trust? Kuhn: The Necessary Tension
It is not only new ideas that make the discovery successful. In fact, there are very few completely original ideas. Usually, after deeply studying the origin of an idea, people find that this idea has been put forward by others before. Beveridge: The Art of Scientific Research
It is extremely difficult for human beings to innovate. Therefore, the existing form is regarded as a sacred heritage. [Germany] Monson: History of Rome
The heresy of the previous generation is the orthodoxy of the later generation. Owen? Si Tong: Passion of the Mind
A successful scientist must show the character of maintaining tradition and opposing idolatry at the same time. [America] trust? Kuhn:
Necessary Tension
Any great scientific principle is generally understood by ordinary scientists before it is clearly expounded by individuals. The height of knowledge is already high, but our inventors are like mountains on the plateau, and they are slightly above the general ideological level at that time. Tindal: The Art of Scientific Research.
