    Karl Popper argues that while philosophies are not inherently valuable, they significantly impact our actions and lives, for better or worse. This makes it important to critically examine our philosophies to potentially improve them. Popper believes that the growth of knowledge relies on the existence of disagreement rather than consensus, as orthodoxy can stifle new ideas and progress. Miles Davis similarly stresses the value of taking chances and making mistakes, as this is how one discovers new things rather than playing it safe and avoiding progress.

    We all have our philosophies, whether or not we are aware of

    this fact, and our philosophies are not worth very much. But
    the impact of our philosophies upon our actions and our lives
    is often devastating. This makes it necessary to try to improve
    our philosophies by criticism. This is the only apology for the
    continued existence of philosophy which I am able to offer.
    Karl Popper
    Objective Knowledge: An Evolutionary Approach

    I hold that orthodoxy is the death of knowledge, since the


    growth of knowledge depends entirely on the existence of
    disagreement.
    Karl Popper
    The Myth of the Framework

    The brilliance comes in your mistakes - that's how you discover


    new things. And the only way to make mistakes is to stretch
    and take chances. If you play it safe, you'll never progress.
    Miles Davis
