Hector Hugh Munro An explanation of cause is not a justification by reason. C. S. Lewis And do you accept the idea that there is no explanation? Julio Cortazar And if you can offer an explanation as to why it doesn't work then you've got to the whole root of comedy. Denis Norden And let me take one of the explanations most commonly given: Analysts were pressured to reach conclusions that would fit the political agenda of one or another administration. I deeply think that is a wrong explanation. David Kay And never - not in a single case - was the explanation, 'I was pressured to do this.' The explanation was very often, 'The limited data we had led one to reasonably conclude this. I now see that there's another explanation for it.' David Kay Any decision I make is based on myself, and the only person I have to give an explanation to is God. Solange Knowles As for the British churchman, he goes to church as he goes to the bathroom, with the minimum of fuss and no explanation if he can help it. Ronald Blythe As of now, string theorists have no explanation of why there are three large dimensions as well as time, and the other dimensions are microscopic. Proposals about that have been all over the map. Edward Witten But if it not be true, the myth itself requires to be explained, and every principle of philosophy and common sense demand that the explanation be sought, not in arbitrary allegorical categories, but in the actual facts of ritual or religious custom to which the myth attaches. William Robertson Smith But myth is something else than an explanation of the world, of history, and of destiny. Paul Ricoeur Communism to me is one-third practice and two-thirds explanation. Will Rogers Could I interrupt here, because there is an alternative explanation, which you are particularly well placed to examine. You know the argument that it is the alchemists in the laboratories who invent the sweet new kits. E. P. Thompson Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions. Anais Nin Don't confuse hypothesis and theory. The former is a possible explanation; the latter, the correct one. The establishment of theory is the very purpose of science. Martin H. Fischer Everything has a natural explanation. The moon is not a god, but a great rock, and the sun a hot rock. Anaxagoras Explanation separates us from astonishment, which is the only gateway to the incomprehensible. Eugene Ionesco Facts which at first seem improbable will, even on scant explanation, drop the cloak which has hidden them and stand forth in naked and simple beauty. Galileo Galilei Good luck needs no explanation. Shirley Temple Hopefully my music is medicine, some type of antidote for something or some kind of explanation or just to feel good. Erykah Badu |
