"Without deductive logic science would be entirely useless.……" — Alfred North Whitehead

"Without deductive logic science would be entirely useless. It is merely a barren game to ascend from the particular to the general, unless afterwards we can reverse the process and descend from the general to the particular, ascending and descending like angels on Jacob's ladder."

Alfred North Whitehead
