![These guys [liberals] will never tire of spending our money and will never hold themselves accountable for their boondoggles. For them the failure of $5 trillion to eradicate poverty simply means that we haven’t spent enough money. Ditto with education. The solution is always more money. No amount of empirical evidence will shake their socialist theology Picture Quote #1](https://img.picturequotes.com/2/965/964774/964774.webp "These guys [liberals] will never tire of spending our money and will never hold themselves accountable for their boondoggles.

Text Quotes
... scientific research is compounded of ... empirical procedures, general speculative ideas, and mathematical or abstract reasoning. (Empirical Quotes)
A healthy economics has got to have both conceptual, theoretical research and applied, empirical research. (Empirical Quotes)
Empirical science is apt to cloud the sight, and, by the very knowledge of functions and processes, to bereave the student of themanly contemplation of the whole. (Empirical Quotes)
To define knowledge as merely empirical is to limit one’s ability to know; it enfeebles one’s ability to feel and think. (Empirical Quotes)
The child who has no need to feign empirical knowledge about life can wonder and fantasise with great ease. The world is his oyster, or any other thing he wants it to be. (Empirical Quotes)
The ocean is the last frontier of human empirical knowledge; even the contours on that eighth-grader’s globe are the product of a mix of scientific measurement, inference and conjecture. (Empirical Quotes)
These guys [liberals] will never tire of spending our money and will never hold themselves accountable for their boondoggles. For them the failure of $5 trillion to eradicate poverty simply means that we haven’t spent enough money. Ditto with education. The solution is always more money. No amount of empirical evidence will shake their socialist theology. (Empirical Quotes)
The richer people, when they get another $100,000, or another million, or 10 million, don’t tend to spend it as much as the poorer people would if they got another $100 or $1,000 or $5,000. All the empirical evidence suggests that the rich tend to consume a lower proportion of income than middle and lower-income people. (Empirical Quotes)
Shamanism is a path of knowledge, not of faith, and that knowledge cannot come from me or anyone else in this reality. To acquire that knowledge, including the knowledge of the reality of the spirits, it is necessary to step through the shaman’s doorway and acquire empirical evidence. (Empirical Quotes)
Memeticists have to give empirical evidence to support the claim that, in the micro-processes of cultural transmission, elements of culture inherit all or nearly all their relevant properties from other elements of culture that they replicate. (Empirical Quotes)
To defy the authority of empirical evidence is to disqualify oneself as someone worthy of critical engagement in a dialogue. (Empirical Quotes)
Visit a typical science classroom and you will discover far more than empirical facts being taught. The dominant worldview among scientific intellectuals is evolutionary naturalism, which holds that humans are essentially biochemical machines. (Empirical Quotes)
I’m all for empowerment and education, but the empirical evidence is that it doesn’t work. That’s why I say make it easy. (Empirical Quotes)
Empirical debunking cannot reach the deepest fear of the reactionary mind, which is that the state - that devouring leviathan - will soon swallow up all traces of human volition and dignity. The conclusion is based on conservative moral convictions that reason can’t shake. (Empirical Quotes)
I think philosophers can do things akin to theoretical scientists, in that, having read about empirical data, they too can think of what hypotheses and theories might account for that data. So there’s a continuity between philosophy and science in that way. (Empirical Quotes)
It’s wrong to try and convert tribal societies. What should the empirical evidence for religion be? It should produce peaceful, strong, secure people who are right with God and right with the world. I don’t see that evidence very often. (Empirical Quotes)
People today sometimes get uncomfortable with empirical claims that seem to clash with their political assumptions, often because they haven’t given much thought to the connections. (Empirical Quotes)
I had some of the students in my finance class actually do some empirical work on capital structures, to see if we could find any obvious patterns in the data, but we couldn’t see any. (Empirical Quotes)
While I have no empirical evidence to back this up, I bet that the number of homosexual people per thousand has not fluctuated all that much over the centuries. I do not believe the dented wisdom my father used to extol, that homosexuality was a sure sign of a civilization in decline. (Empirical Quotes)
In the head-spinning cosmos of climate change, everyday hundreds of people claim there are ‘thousands of papers’ in support of a theory, yet no one can actually name one single paper with empirical evidence that shows carbon dioxide emissions are the main cause of global warming. (Empirical Quotes)
It is that of increasing knowledge of empirical fact, intimately combined with changing interpretations of this body of fact - hence changing general statements about it - and, not least, a changing a structure of the theoretical system. (Empirical Quotes)
Empirical sciences prosecuted purely for their own sake, and without philosophic tendency are like a face without eyes (Empirical Quotes)
Investing is not a natural science but rather a social science. So, it’s never purely empirical; what you are trying to do is everything you possibly can to enhance your probabilities of being right more often than being wrong. (Empirical Quotes)
The map is not the territory... The only usefulness of a map depends on similarity of structure between the empirical world and the map (Empirical Quotes)
It seems strange to make a priori arguments about the relative performance of governments and the markets in health care when there is so much empirical evidence (Empirical Quotes)
In philosophical terms, the opposite of rationalism is not irrationalism but empiricism, that is, a willingness to form beliefs on the basis of experience rather than from a priori deduction. Empirical evidence never yields the dogmatic certainty that accompanies logical deduction (Empirical Quotes)
The fate of an epoch that has eaten of the tree of knowledge is that it must... recognize that general views of life and the universe can never be the products of increasing empirical knowledge, and that the highest ideals, which move us most forcefully, are always formed only in the struggle with other ideals which are just as sacred to others as ours are to us (Empirical Quotes)
As words are not the things we speak about, and structure is the only link between them, structure becomes the only content of knowledge. If we gamble on verbal structures that have no observable empirical structures, such gambling can never give us any structural information about the world. Therefore such verbal structures are structurally obsolete, and if we believe in them, they induce delusions or other semantic disturbances (Empirical Quotes)
Not until the empirical resources are exhausted, need we pass on to the dreamy realms of speculation (Empirical Quotes)
Both education and religion need to ground themselves within the story of the universe as we now understand this story through empirical knowledge. Within this functional cosmology, we can overcome our alienation and begin the renewal of life on a sustainable basis. This story is a numinous revelatory story that could evoke the vision and the energy required to bring not only ourselves but the entire planet into a new order of magnificence (Empirical Quotes)
