Theories, for me, are just about freeing your mind. It doesn't mean the theory is going to work like a scientific theory works. It's about freeing your mind and making you think a different way.

I'm not sure what theory is, unless it's the pursuit of fundamental questions.
Theory helps us to bear our ignorance of facts.
There can be theory but, you know, the problem is you've got to be able to test it. So theories are one thing, testing is another.
Every theory presented as a scientific concept is just that; it's a theory that tries to explain more about the world than previous theories have done. It is open to being challenged and to being proven incorrect.
A theory has only the alternative of being right or wrong. A model has a third possibility: it may be right, but irrelevant.
No theory changes what it is a theory about; man remains what he has always been.
Theories are always very thin and insubstantial, experience only is tangible.
I know my theories and findings are hard for you to accept because they are so original and extraordinary.
I believe without exception that theory follows practice. Whenever there is a conflict between theory and practice, theory is wrong. As far as I'm concerned, we make theories for what people have done.
Never abandon a theory that explains something until you have a theory that explains more.
