More From Karl Popper

Science Is Perhaps The Only Human Activity In Which Errors Are Systematically Criticized And, In Time, Corrected.

We Must Plan For Freedom, And Not Only For Security, If For No Other Reason Than Only Freedom Can Make Security More Secure.

Ignorance Is Not A Simple Lack Of Knowledge But An Active Aversion To Knowledge, The Refusal To Know, Issuing From Cowardice, Pride, Or Laziness Of Mind.

Simple Statements Are To Be Prized More Highly Than Less Simple Ones Because They Tell Us More; Because Their Empirical Content Is Greater; And Because They Are Better Testable.

In My View, Aiming At Simplicity And Lucidity Is A Moral Duty Of All Intellectuals: Lack Of Clarity Is A Sin, And Pretentiousness Is A Crime.
