"Every really existing Thing
is a compound of such innumerable properties,
and has such infinity of relations
with all other things in the universe,
that almost every law
to which it appears to us to be subject
is liable
to be set aside,
or frustrated,
either by some other law of the same object
or by the laws of some other object
which interferes with it:
and
as no one can possibly foresee
or grasp all these contingencies,
much less express them
in such an imperfect language as that of words,
no one need flatter himself
that he can lay down propositions sufficiently specific
to be available for practice,
which he may afterwards apply mechanically
without any exercise of thought."
John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806 – 8 May 1873)
in "Aphorisms:Thoughts in the Cloister and the Crowd"
