Sidney Harman:

"Poets are our original systems thinkers," he said. "They look at our most
complex environments and they reduce the complexity to something they
begin to understand."

Mike Geary:

Bertrand Russell:

The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it. [The Philosophy of Logical Atomism]
