"All our knowledge begins with the senses, proceeds then to the understanding, and ends with reason. There is nothing higher than reason." (「我哋嘅一切知識都係由感官開始嘅,跟住會提升去理解,並且以理性做終結。冇嘢係高過理性嘅。」)[5][6]
科學哲學(philosophy of science)係科學嘅基礎,簡單噉講就係一套有關「科學呢家嘢應該點搞」嘅諗法:「哲學」呢個詞一般都係指緊某一個學科,但响廣義上嚟講,呢個詞仲可以攞嚟指「一個人或者一班人對於做某一樣嘢嘅基本信念」-所以粵文入面會有「做人哲學」呢個詞,指一個人對於「做人」嘅諗法同信念;按呢個邏輯,科學哲學就係指緊做科學嘅人對於「科學係啲乜嘢」同埋「科學應該點樣搞」呢類問題嘅一套諗法[7][8]。
