War
After finishing High School in March 1942, he was drafted into the Arbeitsdienst. And sent for basic training in Pirmasens, Germany. Feyerabend volunteered for officers' school, not because he wanted to be a leader, but to try to survive, his intention being to use officers' school as a way to avoid front-line fighting.

Against Method
In 1970 one of Paul Feyerabend's best friends Lakatos mentioned to him that he should start compiling all his wild ideas. He said he would then write a response back. Unfortunately Lakatos died before he got a chance to respond so Feyerabend went ahead and published it.
