Our Knowledge Can Only Be

There Is No History Of Mankind, There Is Only An Indefinite Number Of Histories Of All Kinds Of Aspects Of Human Life.

Historically Speaking All - Or Very Nearly All - Scientific Theories Originate From Myths.

What Really Makes Science Grow Is New Ideas, Including False Ideas.

I Think That We Shall Have To Get Accustomed To The Idea That We Must Not Look Upon Science As A 'body Of Knowledge,' But Rather As A System Of Hypotheses; That Is To Say, As A System Of Guesses Or Anticipations Which In Principle Cannot Be Justified, But With Which We Work As Long As They Stand Up To Tests, And Of Which We Are Never Justified In Saying That We Know They Are 'true' Or 'more Or Less Certain' Or Even 'probable.'

It Must Be Possible For An Empirical System To Be Refuted By Experience.
