Author: David Deutsch
«The truly privileged theories are not the ones referring to any particular scale of size or complexity, nor the ones situated at any particular level of the predictive hierarchy, but the ones that contain the deepest explanations.»
Author: David Deutsch
«As I understand it, the claim is that the less you use Homeopathy, the better it works. Sounds plausible to me.»
Author: David Deutsch
«The next chapter is likely to provoke many mathematicians. This can't be helped. Mathematics is not what they think it is.»
