Nietzsche - Science
“…great and universally minded spirits have,…used the armoury of science to lay bare the limitations and determinations of knowledge, and thus have decisively negated the claims of science to universal validity and universal goals….they have revealed the delusion…which imagines it can explain the innermost essence of things."
Nietzsche BT P87
