ABSTRACT
Chargaff, Erwin . . . nowadays our sciences, quick and fickle, wear out dogmas in 10 years, and axioms take only a little longer.
Raju, P.T. We are driven to conclude that science, like mathematics, is a system of axioms, assumptions, and deductions; it may start from being, but later leaves it to itself, and ends in the formation of a hypothetical reality that has nothing to do with existence; or it is the discovery of an ideal being which is of course, present in what we call actuality, and renders it an existence for us only by being present in it.
