Inquiry
Inquiry is fatal to certainty.
- Will Durant
Examine, inquire.
Look into the nature of things.
Search out the grounds of your opinions,
the for and against.
Know why you believe, understand what you believe,
and possess a reason for the faith that is in you.
- Frances Wright
Doubt is the incentive to truth and inquiry leads the way.
- Hosea Ballou
If you would be a real seeker after truth,
it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt,
as far as possible, all things.
- Rene Descartes
What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.
It is something out of his own unique potentiality for experience,
something that never has been and never could
have been experienced by anyone else.
- Joseph Campbell
It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from inquiry.
- Thomas Paine
Everything is not as it appears to be.
- Proverb
Today's photo of deep space taken from the NASA Hubble Space Telescope would have been unimaginable a century ago.
