From birth, man is surrounded by a variety of laws.Just piled on him the laws of physics, chemistry, geometry, logic, and philosophy of law.Even the fall of the sandwich on the floor is the law and what to talk about things more global?
For example, it is absolutely the whole population of the planet since childhood sign the so-called law of meanness, according to which things are moving precisely in the version which is less desirable in this situation.It is to this kind of everyday truths are the laws of Murphy.
What are these laws and where they came from
Getting philosophical laws of Murphy was laid back in 1949.Contrary to the stories, logic and statistics laid the foundation to this doctrine does not figure philosophy, and a specialist in the field of aeronautical engineering Edward Murphy.
He specialized in researching the above-named captain of emergencies.Featuring straight and as it turned out, a sober assessment of the situation, he once said that "if we can do something wrong, technology necessarily make it so."The phrase has been so labeled, which immediately went under the record and received the proud name of "Murphy's Law".
first expression was a successful introduction.Perhaps it would have remained if not for a press conference.The fact is that a certain Dr. John Paul Stapp journalists decided to reveal the cause of the accident is strikingly low levels, which was based on an unshakable belief in Murphy's Law, but rather an irresistible desire to work around it.Needless to say, with a light feeding of journalists learned about this law all about?It was then that was born the first in the history of Murphy's Law.
course, a pioneer Edward Murphy was not, as the law of meanness existed long before that.Nevertheless, it said it in the right place at the right time was the beginning of a word the whole philosophical doctrine.
Edward Murphy and his law
Many researchers and appreciating philosophical principles Murphy People still argue about the authorship.Of course, before the end of this issue will never be resolved, but it is safe to say that he presumed author died, just follow your own law.
Life of Captain Edward Murphy ended rather banal and unexpected: a dark night on a road in the US, he was hit by a Briton, ehavshim in the opposite lane.The car stalled discoverer of the law of meanness, and he went into the oncoming lane in order to catch a ride and get to the nearest gas station, where he caught up with old-death.The British, of course, believed that the right moves - a key role in this case played a habit of left-hand traffic.In short, Murphy was the victim of just such an undesirable, but an unlikely coincidence.
fate of Murphy's laws
course, so bright, and most importantly, an accurate statement, could not remain unnoticed.It has undergone many discussions, received an incredible amount of evidence and entered into modernity thanks to the book of Arthur Bloch's "Murphy's Law", which contained a fair amount of humor not only the law, but also its consequences.
Effect, by the way, turned out to be not less than the label.Perhaps it is thanks to them that the laws of Murphy and got so many fans.
basis of philosophical doctrine
Just incredible amount of critics have spoken that adhere to this kind of law is unacceptable.Philosophical doctrines such sense the men seem to be serious too pessimistic.However, their vitality and the validity is not affected.
In fact, in life everything happens exactly as described: if the trouble can happen, it will certainly happen, and entails the worst of scenarios.
sense of humor of our lives
Murphy's Law Murphy, in fact, quite versatile.Think, for example, the famous song: "10 girls Statistics 9 guys."And such examples all the time, if you think about.Absolutely every person on earth, sooner or later finds himself in a situation where it is desired is lost at this point (or better yesterday) thing.Of course, miraculously, it is not as long as it does not need disappears, and later, after you have scoured all imaginable and unimaginable places there right in front.This, incidentally, is also the law of Murphy.
«It is necessary to wash the car, as there is going to rain" - the law says Murphy.Neither motorist would dare to challenge this statement because too large a percentage of events in this vein.
What about "snoring sleep first?"Is not that the truth?Of course, one can not forget the truly brilliant statement about the benefits of reading the literature explaining: "If nothing else helps, read the last instructions."How many devices have been utilized by the so-called "educated bet"?And how much was spoiled at the same time?
Murphy's Laws - funny and at the same time absolutely precise - can explain any phenomenon in our lives.All failures, mishaps and misfortunes happen upon them.
Every day at Murphy's Law
One of these postulates is said that a man - being much smarter than he needed to be happy.How many times every citizen of the world could not sleep because of what occurred to some awkward situation from the past, which certainly should think about?Millions of millions of times.And this number is still tends to infinity.
popular expression that if the sleepy third consecutive day, this day - the environment - is also one of the famous laws.If you think about it, especially not with him will argue.Each of the fair sex could without compunction to confirm one of the fundamental laws: pimples appear on the face for about an hour before the appointed date.And what it wants, the big disaster is found in this time period.
famous syndrome stairs, by the way, also operates in full accordance with Murphy's Law: the best arguments - are precisely those that come to mind when it was over.
Murphy's laws on every day, anyway, quite sad in itself.Here is an example: "there is a bad situation, which could not be worse."The limit of perfection, as we know, does not exist.And it's a proven fact.
Murphy's Law in action
If you think about it, Murphy and his followers in the formation of his theory of contact with the dangerous and terrible events in some way.How many troubles happened in the history of mankind in the confirmation data postulates.
Murphy philosophical principles, but rather a situation from which they are derived, and sometimes drives people crazy in the most literal sense of the word.Few people have not heard the story of Oleg Mitasova who could build a brilliant career as a doctor, if his life is not interrupted his Majesty the case.
great scientist mind for a long time korpevshy on his own doctoral thesis, one day went to defend it.And all would have been great if that same potential PhD thesis has not forgotten the law of meanness on the tram.
This incident produced a Mitasova so impressed that he literally went crazy.All the walls of his apartment were covered with strange inscriptions, the most common of which was "WAC," where he was going to protect.
That is so cruel is the famous law of meanness, if you take your failure too personally.
Another great example - the life of Vincent van Gogh.Poverty, stagnation and public hostility - that had to suffer all his life one of the greatest artists in history.Fame came to him only after his death, after many years.Master paintings was born and lived not in due time, in a strange world to him.
Murphy's Laws and other thinkers
Philosophical humor, it should be noted, Murphy's laws is not a stranger, and if to make searches of world literature, cinema, history and science, you can find quite a lot of followers merfologii.
For example, the famous saying of Chekhov relatively guns, which have to shoot in the last act, it is not contrary to the fundamental principles of the famous Murphy's Law, and vice versa - confirms them.
Dovlatov, for example, wrote that "the share of the absurd is essential to responsible action," which means that the need for the law of meanness writer realized perfectly.
Such laws pervade the whole philosophy of art and literature.And if you dig a little deeper and where to turn to science, even the great Albert Einstein put it in full compliance with the laws of Murphy: "Do you think all that simple?Yes, it's simple.But it is not so. "Is not that the truth?
future laws Murphy
The same Einstein said that there are no limits at the universe and human stupidity, and in the latter he was not sure.That is why we can say that the law of the incident sandwich will be proved again and again, awkward situations will be more and more, and the law of meanness will bring to mind more than a dozen people.Of course, some limitations and human stupidity - is not the only criterion for the development of the world according to the laws of Murphy.There are other, more reasonable, more scientifically sound, dry and saturated with facts and figures.Nevertheless, in paints and precision to the law of meanness, they can not be compared.
What do a person living under the laws of Murphy?
First of all - do not lose heart.Everything that happens, happens for the best yet.Whatever the situation may be awkward, they always serve as experience.Whatever the situation, it may become worse, so a person has an incentive to fight for the best.And all the great discoveries are made by mistake.Murphy's Laws, funny and sad at the same time, serve as a proof of that.
