Foreknowledge Is Power.

Each Department Of Knowledge Passes Through Three Stages. The Theoretic Stage; The Theological Stage And The Metaphysical Or Abstract Stage.

Religion Is An Illusion Of Childhood, Outgrown Under Proper Education.

Every Science Consists In The Coordination Of Facts; If The Different Observations Were Entirely Isolated, There Would Be No Science.

Mathematical Analysis Is... The True Rational Basis Of The Whole System Of Our Positive Knowledge.

Every Attempt To Employ Mathematical Methods In The Study Of Chemical Questions Must Be Considered Profoundly Irrational And Contrary To The Spirit Of Chemistry.... If Mathematical Analysis Should Ever Hold A Prominent Place In Chemistry -- An Aberration Which Is Happily Almost Impossible -- It Would Occasion A Rapid And Widespread Degeneration Of That Science.
