The Best Design Is The Simplest One

All Our Thoughts And Concepts Are Called Up By Sense-experiences And Have A Meaning Only In Reference To These Sense-experiences. On The Other Hand, However, They Are Products Of The Spontaneous Activity Of Our Minds; They Are Thus In No Wise Logical Consequences Of The Contents Of These Sense-experiences. If, Therefore, We Wish To Grasp The Essence Of A Complex Of Abstract Notions We Must For The One Part Investigate The Mutual Relationships Between The Concepts And The Assertions Made About Them; For The Other, We Must Investigate How They Are Related To The Experiences.

Raffiniert Ist Der Herr Gott, Aber Boshaft Ist Er Nicht. God Is Subtle, But He Is Not Malicious.

I Rarely Think In Words At All.

Development Of Western Science Is Based On Two Great Achievements: The Invention Of The Formal Logical System (in Euclidean Geometry) By The Greek Philosophers, And The Discovery Of The Possibility To Find Out Causal Relationships By Systematic Experiment (during The Renaissance). In My Opinion, One Has Not To Be Astonished That The Chinese Sages Have Not Made These Steps. The Astonishing Thing Is That These Discoveries Were Made At All.

The World We Have Made As A Result Of The Level Of Thinking We Have Done Thus Far Creates Problems That We Cannot Solve At The Same Level At Which We Have Created Them.... We Shall Require A Substantially New Manner Of Thinking If Humankind Is To Survive.
