Complexity And Information Quotes

“A change in Quantity also entails a change in Quality”
― Engels Friedrich

“Ralph Gomory, the President of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, proposes a tripartite division of science: the known, the unknown, and the unknowable. The known is taught in the schools and universities and is exhibited in the science museums. But scientists are excited by the unknown. Parenthetically, artists go to art museums to learn; scientists do not go to science museums because those museums act as if it's all known and preordained. That may be changing; exemplars are the Exploratorium in San Francisco and the American Museum of Natural History.

Gomory's tripartite division proposes three distinct areas: the known, the unknown which may someday become known, and the unknowable, which will never be known. The unknown and the unknowable form the boundary of science. Here are examples of questions for which the answers are today unknown.”

“Complexity is a common problem in the Information Age what may put a barrier between you and the future. The principle liberates the mind and designs the future. You will find many ways to get there. None of them is right - only those leading there. Future does not exist yet, so it neither can be right.”
― Thomas Vato, Questology

“The goal of American English speakers appears to be to rob the mother tongue of direct meaning and replace it with needlessly-complex jargon.”
