"When I was at school - some time ago - we were taught in science that the correct method was to formulate a hypothesis and then conduct research which may or may not validate your theory. If not, reconsider and begin again. Whatever you do, do not proceed in such a way that it can only validate your hypothesis. To do such a thing only invalidates your work.
I haven't finished the book yet, I may change my mind." — May 08, 2026 05:35AM

“Once every year for four days the tens of thousands of Athenian citizens sat in the open air on the stone seats at the side of the Acropolis and from sunrise to sunset watched the plays of the competing dramatists. All that we have to correspond is a Test match. The manner in which the drama arrived will tell us something valuable about Test matches and (for the moment let us whisper it) the way Test matches arrived may start a trail into that vexed question: the origin of Greek drama. There are so many that another wouldn't hurt.”
