Drama
Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance: a play performed in a theatre, or on radio or television. Considered as a genre of poetry in general, the dramatic mode has been contrasted with the epic and the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (c. 335 BC)—the earliest work of dramatic theory.
Method
Imposing an alleged uniform general method upon everybody breeds mediocrity in all but the very exceptional. And measuring originality by deviation from the mass breeds eccentricity in them.
John Dewey, Democracy and Education, Section 13: The Nature of Method, Method as General and as Individual (1916).
Method
The method of scientific investigation is nothing but the expression of the necessary mode of working of the human mind.
Thomas Henry Huxley, "Our Knowledge of the Causes of the Phenomena of Organic Nature" (1863).
Method
The confidence in the unlimited power of science is only too often based on a false belief that the scientific method consists in the application of a ready-made technique, or in imitating the form rather than the substance of scientific procedure, as if one needed only to follow some cooking recipes to solve all social problems. It sometimes almost seems as if the techniques of science were more easily learnt than the thinking that shows us what the problems are and how to approach them.
Friedrich Hayek, The Pretence of Knowledge, Nobel Prize lecture (11 December 1974).
