Man the barricades

Random quote of the day:

“[W]e can always immunize a theory against refutation. There are many such immunizing tactics; and if nothing better occurs to us, we can always deny the objectivity—or even the existence—of the refuting observation. Those intellectuals who are more interested in being right than in learning something interesting but unexpected are by no means rare exceptions.”

—Karl Popper, The Philosophy of Karl Popper, ed. Paul Schlipp
