The abstract word is &#8220;Chaos&#8221;. I meant to write this quote on one of the of the sheets that had the word &#8220;Doubt&#8221; on it, but I guess chaos often relates to doubt. I have yet to attribute the quotation, which belongs to Richard Feynman. Another layout decision, you know.\u00a0The entire quotation reads:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We absolutely must leave room\u00a0for\u00a0doubt or there is no progress and no learning. There is no learning without having to pose a question. And a question requires doubt. People search\u00a0for\u00a0certainty. But there is no certainty.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>An apposite quotation for a workshop, I think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A couple of weeks ago\u00a0I attended an inspiring workshop taught by Peter Thornton in Missoula.
