Logical Positivism Quotes

If proof were the standard of truth, fallacies would constitute the ultimate reality.

Empiricism assumes that objects can be understood independendy of observing subjects. Truth is therefore assumed to lie in a world external to the observer whose job is to record and faithfully reflect the attributes of objects. This logical empiricism is a pragmatic version of that scientific method which goes under the name of 'logical positivism', and is founded in a particular and very strict view of language and meaning.

Logical positivism is philosophy from the neck up.
