Paul Karl Feyerabend Quotes

The best education consists in immunizing people against systematic attempts at education Picture Quote #1
The sciences of today are business enterprises run on business principles. Research in large institutes is not guided by Truth and Reason but by the most rewarding fashion, and the great minds of today increasingly turn to where the money is - which means military matters Picture Quote #1
When Western civilization invaded the Near and Far East and what is now called the Third World it imposed its own ideas of a proper environment and a rewarding life. Doing this, it disrupted the delicate patterns of adaptation and created problems that had not existed before Picture Quote #1
Early Chinese thinkers had taken variety at face value. They had favored diversification and collected anomalies instead of trying to explain them away Picture Quote #1
One can show the following: given any rule, however fundamental or necessary for science, there are always circumstances when it is advisable not only to ignore the rule, but to adopt its opposite Picture Quote #1
Not only are facts and theories in constant disharmony, they are never as neatly separated as everyone makes them out to be Picture Quote #1

Facts are constituted by older ideologies, and a clash between facts and theories may be proof of progress Picture Quote #1
Taking experimental results and observations for granted and putting the burden of proof on the theory means taking the observational ideology for granted without having ever examined it Picture Quote #1

The validity of usefulness, adequacy of popular standards can be tested only by research that violates them Picture Quote #1
Traditions are neither good nor bad, they simply are... Rationality is not an arbiter of traditions, it is itself a tradition or an aspect of a tradition Picture Quote #1
Rational discourse is only one way of presenting and examining an issue and by no means the best. Our new intellectuals are not aware of its limitations and of the nature of the things outside Picture Quote #1

All religion may be centered around a generally good idea, however, this has not stopped its adherents from acting like bastards Picture Quote #1
Results from a given approach are facts as long as the approach fits the group or the tradition that is being addressed Picture Quote #1
