“Give a small boy a hammer, and he will find that everything he encounters needs pounding. It comes as no particular surprise to discover that a scientist formulates problems in a way which requires for their solution just those techniques in which he himself is especially skilled.”
Abraham Kaplan, The Conduct of Inquiry: Methodology for Behavioural Science

“We are forever asking Nature whether it has stopped beating its wife.”
Abraham Kaplan

“The price of training is always a certain "trained incapacity": the more we know how to do something, the harder it is to learn to do it differently.”
Abraham Kaplan, The Conduct of Inquiry: Methodology for Behavioural Science
