“[P]hilosophy is one subject and ... progress in one place depends on the resolution of issues that lie elsewhere. One is led eventually into almost all other areas and questions. This is certainly true of the work of the great philosophers of the past. Against that high standard, the current professional fixation on distinct 'fields' or areas of academic 'specialization' and 'competence' looks like no more than a bad joke.”
Barry Stroud
“Dismissing without further investigation something that conflicts with what is already known is the very heart of rationality.”
