“It takes a fearless, unflinching love and deep humility to accept the universe as it is. The most effective way he knew to accomplish that, the most powerful tool at his disposal, was the scientific method, which over time winnows out deception. It can't give you absolute truth because science is a permanent revolution, always subject to revision, but it can give you successive approximations of reality.”
“The most powerful tools of revolution through intention are humility and consciousness.”
“Science, at its core, is simply a method of practical logic that tests hypotheses against experience. Scientism, by contrast, is the worldview and value system that insists that the questions the scientific method can answer are the most important questions human beings can ask, and that the picture of the world yielded by science is a better approximation to reality than any other.”
“The Scientific Method is a wonderful tool as long as you don't care which way the outcome turns; however, this process fails the second one's perception interferes with the interpretation of data. This is why I don’t take anything in life as an absolute…even if someone can “prove” it “scientifically.”
“A long apprenticeship is the most logical way to success. The only alternative is overnight stardom, but I can't give you a formula for that. ”
“. Myth and superstition cannot compete with science on the platforms of reason and facts. But on the platform of fear mongering, science is nowhere near as powerful a tool as to what amounts to historically as the most effective marketing strategy of all time.”
