"What is a theory, if not the articulatoin of a pracitce? "

Another quote from M. de Certeau that I am in love with right now:

"What is a theory, if not the articulatoin of a pracitce? And what is an epistemology, if not a discourse that elucidates that relationship?"

I am hoping that our cluster could be a pracitce of inquiry as such.

What is great about this quote is that it invokes the materiality of the theories we have been grappling with and will prevent us from committing an over-abstracting research (which is done in both quantitative and qualitative research). Anyway...I guess I'm a bit digressing. :)
