Philosopher
Clerihews
Karl Popper
Gave himself a whopper
Of a philosophical vocation,
Which was the repudiate the classical
observationalist/inductivist form of scientific method in favour
of empirical falsification.
René Descartes
Blew apart
Assumptions about the nature of reality
With Cartesian duality.
Baruch Spinoza
Sought to expose a
Widespread potential delusion
By claiming free will is an illusion.
Socrates
Makes mediocrities
Of other ages’
Sages.
