We have the right to believe at our own risk any hypothesis that is
live enough to tempt our will.
- WILLIAM JAMES
"Theories have four stages of acceptance:
i) this is worthless nonsense;
ii) this is an interesting, but perverse, point of view;
iii) this is true, but quite unimportant;
iv) I always said so.
- J.B.S. Haldane, 1963
