Quote
It is difficult, almost impossible, in fact, for the scientific community to recognize the fact that Cartesian bifurcation is a philosophic postulate, for which there is absolutely no scientific basis [...] It is not that they can conceive or imagine a scientific proof of that hypothesis; it is rather that they are unable to conceive that it might not be true.

Quote
Yes, it is indeed by way of the mathematical forms that the physicist gains knowledge of the external world; Eddington’s point, however, is that the forms in question have been artificially imposed: “The mathematics is not there until we put it there.” And it is for this reason, and in this sense, that our knowledge of mathematical structures – our knowledge of the physical world! – is said to be subjective.

Quote
The so-called physical universe – “the world so described” – turns out to be constituted by mathematical structures which we ourselves have imposed; in a word, it proves to be “man-made.” Yet this way of putting it is also misleading; for inasmuch as physical knowledge is partly objective, “the world so described” must be “partly objective” as well. One is left with a curiously equivocal conception, which may enlighten the wise but is bound to deceive the unwary.
