    Mark Twain
    “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

    Kahlil Gibran
    “البعض نحبهم
    لكن لا نقترب منهم...فهم في البعد أحلى
    وهم في البعد أرقى...وهم في البعد أغلى

    البعض نحبهم
    ونسعى كي نقترب منهم
    ونتقاسم تفاصيل الحياة معهم
    ويؤلمنا الابتعاد عنهم
    ويصعب علينا تصوّر الحياة حين تخلو منهم.

    البعض نحبّهم
    ونتمنى أن نعيش حكاية جميلة معهم
    ونفتعل الصدف لكي نلتقي بهم
    ونختلق الأسباب كي نراهم
    ونعيش في الخيال أكثر من الواقع معهم

    البعض نحبهم
    بيننا و بين أنفسنا
    نصمت برغم الألم
    لا نجاهر بحبهم حتى لهم لأن
    العواقب مخيفه و من الأفضل لنا و لهم أن تبقى الأبواب مغلقة

    البعض نحبهم
    فنملأ الأرض بحبهم و نحدث الدنيا عنهم
    و نحتاج إلى وجودهم..كالماء..والهواء
    و نختنق فى غيابهم أو الأبتعاد عنهم

    البعض نحبّهم
    لأننا لا نجد سواهم
    وحاجتنا إلى الحب تدفعنا نحوهم
    فالأيام تمضي
    والعمر ينقضي
    والزمن لا يقف
    ويرعبنا بأن نبقى بلا رفيق

    البعض نحبهم
    لأن مثلهم لا يستحق سوى الحب
    ولا نملك أمامهم سوى أن نحب
    نرمم معهم أشياء كثيرة
    نعيد طلاء الحياة
    ونسعى صادقين كي نمنحهم بعض السعادة

    البعض نحبهم
    و لا نجد صدى للحب في
    قلوبهم
    فننهار
    ونتخبط في حكايات فاشلة
    فلا نكرههم
    لا ننساهم
    لا نحب سواهم
    ونعود نبكيهم بعد كل محاولة فاشلة

    والبعض نحبّهم
    ويبقى فقط أن يحبّوننا
    مثلما نحبّهم”
    جبران خليل جبران

  • #29
    “It is, I think, particularly in periods of acknowledged crisis that scientists have turned to philosophical analysis as a device for unlocking the riddles of their field. Scientists have not generally needed or wanted to be philosophers. Indeed, normal science usually holds creative philosophy at arm's length, and probably for good reason. To the extent that normal research work can be conducted by using the paradigm as a model, rules and assumptions need not be made explicit. The full set of rules sought by philosophical analysis need not even exist.”
    Thomas Kuhn

  • #30
    “Discovery commences with the awareness of anomaly, i.e. with the recognition that nature has somehow violated the paradigm-induced expectations that govern normal science. It then continues with a more or less extended exploration of the area of anomaly. And it closes only when the paradigm theory has been adjusted so that the anomalous has become the expected.”
    Thomas Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
