They comprehended that reason has insight only into what it itself produces according to its own design; that it must take the lead with principles for its judgments according to constant laws and compel nature to answer its questions, rather than letting nature guide its movements by keeping reason, as it were, in leading-strings; for otherwise accidental observations, made according to no previously designed plan, can never connect up into a necessary law, which is yet what reason seeks and requires. Reason, in order to be taught by nature, must approach nature with its principles in one hand, according to which alone the agreement among appearances can count as laws, and, in the other hand, the experiments thought in accordance with these principles - yet in order to be instructed by nature not like a pupil, who has recited to him whatever the teacher wants to say, but like an appointed judge who compels witnesses to answer the questions he puts to them. Thus even physics owes the advantageous revolution in its way of thinking to the inspiration that what reason would not be able to know of itself and has to learn from nature, it has to seek in the latter (though not merely ascribe to it) in accordance with what reason itself puts into nature. This is how natural science was first brought to the secure course of a science after groping about for so many centuries.","author":"Immanuel Kant","tags":["constructivism","critical-turn","empiricism","experiment","laws","modern-science","nature","necessity","philosophy","physics","rational-principles","reason","science","system","understanding"],"id":6179,"author_id":"Immanuel+Kant"},{"text":"You have to stand guard over the development and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic social justice and the equality of manhood in your own native soil.","author":"Muhammad Ali Jinnah","tags":["ali","corruption","development","discipline","education","equality","faith","guard","harmony","islam","jinnah","justice","leader","life","love","maintenance","manhood","morals","muhammad","native","pakistan","peace","power","social","society","soil","stand","system","thinking","unity","values"],"id":15511,"author_id":"Muhammad+Ali+Jinnah"},{"text":"The child is brought up to know its social duties by means of a system of love-rewards and punishments, and in this way it is taught that its security in life depends on its parents (and, subsequently, other people) loving it and being able to believe in its love for them.","author":"Sigmund Freud","tags":["child","dependent","love","parent","punishment","reward","security","social-duties","system","trust"],"id":17804,"author_id":"Sigmund+Freud"},{"text":"Let's create a legal system that can work.","author":"Sam Brownback","tags":["work","create","system "],"id":17923,"author_id":"Sam+Brownback"},{"text":"A system is corrupt when it is strictly profit-driven, not driven to serve the best interests of its people, but those of multinational corporations.","author":"Suzy Kassem","tags":["capitalism","corporate-greed","corporations","corrupt","corruption","democracy","facism","government","greed","leadership","multinational-corporations","plutocracy","profit","profit-driven","system"],"id":18477,"author_id":"Suzy+Kassem"},{"text":"Muhammad introduced the concept of such Glorious and Omnipotent God in Whose eyes all worldly systems are pieces of straw.
