The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge
Author:- Jean-François Lyotard
Category:- knowledge
Quote:- Science has carried us to the gateway to the universe. And yet our conception of our surroundings remains the disproportionate view of the still-small child. We are spiritually and culturally paralyzed, unable to face the vastness, to embrace our lack of centrality and find our actual place in the fabric of nature. We batter this planet as if we had someplace else to go. That we even do science is a hopeful glimmer of mental health. However, it's not enough merely to accept these insights intellectually while we cling to a spiritual ideology that is not only rootless in nature but also, in many ways, contemptuous of what is natural.

Quote:- Science involves the quest for knowledge. Any such quest, by necessity, involves some commitment to epistemology.
