"If even in science there is no a way of judging a theory but by assessing the number, faith and vocal energy of its supporters, then this must be even more so in the social sciences: truth lies in power."
Faith
"The classical example of a successful research programme is Newton's gravitational theory: possibly the most successful research programme ever."
