If we were to abandon concern for what is true, what is false, and what remains indeterminate, the world would be totally chaotic. Even those who deny the importance of truth, on the one hand, are quick to jump on anyone who is caught lying.

  • -- Howard Gardner 加德纳

如果我们放弃对什么是真的,什么是假的,什么是不确定的关心,世界将会完全混乱。一方面,即使是那些否认真相重要性的人,也会很快抓住任何一个说谎的人。
