Nature consists of facts and of regularities, and is in itself neither moral nor immoral. It is we who impose our standards upon nature,

and who in this way introduce morals into the natural world, in spite the fact that we are part of this world.
In so far as a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable;
and in so far as it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality.
If we are uncritical we shall always find what we want: we shall look for, and find, confirmations, and we shall look away from,
and not see, whatever might be dangerous to our pet theories. In this way it is only too easy to obtain
what appears to be overwhelming evidence in favor of a theory which, if approached critically, would have been refuted.
Piecemeal social engineering resembles physical engineering in regarding the ends as beyond the province of technology.
(All that technology may say about ends is whether or not they are compatible with each other or realizable.)
You can choose whatever name you like for the two types of government.
I personally call the type of government which can be removed without violence "democracy," and the other "tyranny."
It is impossible to speak in such a way that you cannot be misunderstood.
Those who promise us paradise on earth never produced anything but a hell.
Our knowledge can only be finite, while our ignorance must necessarily be infinite.
Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance.
For myself, I am interested in science and in philosophy only because I want to learn something
about the riddle of the world in which we live, and the riddle of man's knowledge of that world.
And I believe that only a revival of interest in these riddles can save the sciences and philosophy
from an obscurantist faith in the expert's special skill and in his personal knowledge and authority.
No rational argument will have a rational effect on a man who does not want to adopt a rational attitude.
