Danh ngôn của Imre Lakatos (Sứ mệnh: 7)

Einstein's results again turned the tables and now very few philosophers or scientists still think that scientific knowledge is, or can be, proven knowledge.
If even in science there is no a way of judging a theory but by assessing the number, faith and vocal energy of its supporters, then this must be even more so in the social sciences: truth lies in power.
The positive heuristic of the programme saves the scientist from becoming confused by the ocean of anomalies.
Philosophy of science without history of science is empty; history of science without philosophy of science is blind.
