Top 5 Stephen Mumford Quotes (2025 Update)

1. “When something changes, we should not see it as a single thing bearing contrary properties, according to perdurantism, but as different things–temporal parts–bearing those properties.

— Stephen Mumford

3. “We like to feel that we are dealing in objective, eternal, and immutable truths, unaffected by our human perspective on things.”

— Stephen Mumford

4. “All that matters for philosophers is that it could be true.”

— Stephen Mumford

5. “There is more to the world than that which we humans have created.”

— Stephen Mumford
