Theories are tested, never proven. The ones still standing are what we know — for now. Always ask: how would I know this was wrong?

Bold ideas, unjustified anticipations, and speculative thought, are our only means for interpreting nature: our only organon, our only instrument, for grasping her.

All life is problem-solving.

Karl Popper
·1963·London, United Kingdom

Every solution of a problem raises new unsolved problems; the more so the deeper the original problem and the bolder its solution. The more we learn about the world, and the deeper our learning, the more conscious, specific, and articulate will be our knowledge of what we do not know, our knowledge of our ignorance.
