Jacob Bronowski Quotes

The Principle Of Uncertainty Fixed Once For All The Realisation That All Knowledge Is Limited. It Is An Irony Of History That At The Very Time When This Was Being Worked Out There Should Rise, Under Hitler In Germany And Other Tyrants Elsewhere, A Counter-conception: A Principle Of Monstrous Certainty. When The Future Looks Back On The 1930s It Will Think Of Them As A Crucial Confrontation Of Culture As I Have Been Expounding It, The Ascent Of Man, Against The Throwback To The Despots' Belief That They Have Absolute Certainty.
