There Is Not A Single Rule, However Plausible, And However Firmly Grounded In Epistemology, That Is Not Violated At Some Time Or Other. It Becomes Evident That Such Violations Are Not Accidental Events, They Are Not Results Of Insufficient Knowledge Or Of Inattention Which Might Have Been Avoided. On The Contrary, We See That They Are Necessary For Progress.

On The Contrary, We See That They Are Necessary For Progress.
