The secret to unlocking flow lies in the challenge-skills balance.

From The Rise of Superman by Steven Kotler

It is the theory that decides what we can observe.

From The Feynman Lectures on Physics by Richard Feynman

Theories are nets cast to catch what we call 'the world': to rationalize, to explain, and to master it.

From The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper

Theories are not merely tools for prediction but also serve as the basis for the interpretation of new observations.

From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn

In a sense, every computer is a Turing machine.

From The Conscious Mind by David Chalmers

The interplay of colors can create harmony or chaos.

From The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair

A Turing machine is a theoretical model that helps us understand computation.

A strange loop is a level in a hierarchy that, by ascending or descending, ends up in the same place.

From Gödel, Escher, Bach by Douglas Hofstadter

In the end, all algorithms are approximations.

From The Master Algorithm by Pedro Domingos

The key to artificial intelligence has always been the representation.

From The Master Algorithm by Pedro Domingos

Theories can only be tested against the background of a theoretical framework.

From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn

To be moral is to act according to the dictates of reason.

From The Metaphysics of Morals by Immanuel Kant

Understanding color can deepen our connection to the world around us.

From The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair

We cannot expect the world to fit our theories.

From The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper

Each color has its own story, a narrative woven into the fabric of life.

From The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair

The history of color is a history of human emotion.

From The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair

Success in sports is often determined by how well you can read the game.

From The Playmaker's Advantage by Leonard Zaichkowsky and Daniel Peterson

A theory that is not refutable by any conceivable event is non-scientific.

From The Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch

Color is a language we all understand, regardless of culture.

From The Secret Lives of Color by Kassia St. Clair

Metaphysics is not a science, but a mere pre-science.

From The Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant

A Turing machine can be in one of a finite number of states.

From The Annotated Turing by Charles Petzold

What we see when we look at the world is determined not only by the world we see but also by the theories we hold.

From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn

Information is a measure of the uncertainty of a system.

From The Annotated Turing by Charles Petzold

There are problems that are not computable.

From The Annotated Turing by Charles Petzold

Theories are replaced by new theories that explain the same phenomena in a different way.

From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn

Theories are nets cast to catch what we call 'the world'.

From The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper

In the game of evolution, the players are organisms, and the rules are set by nature.

From The Red Queen by Matt Ridley

Theories are not simply true or false; they are also more or less useful.

From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn

Experience without theory is blind, but theory without experience is mere intellectual play.

From The Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant

We cannot make our observations free from theory.

From The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper

The concept of 'computability' helps us to understand what can and cannot be computed.

From The Annotated Turing by Charles Petzold

The Red Queen hypothesis states that organisms must constantly adapt to survive while pitted against ever-evolving opposing organisms.

From The Red Queen by Matt Ridley

The clash of theories is often where the truth emerges.

From The Theory That Would Not Die by Sharon Bertsch McGrayne

Every genuine test of a theory is an attempt to falsify it, or to refute it.

From The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper
