Fourier Is A Mathematical Poem.

You Know Only Insofar As You Can Measure.

Christianity Without The Cross Is Nothing. The Cross Was The Fitting Close Of A Life Of Rejection, Scorn And Defeat. But In No True Sense Have These Things Ceased Or Changed. Jesus Is Still He Whom Man Despiseth, And The Rejected Of Men. The World Has Never Admired Jesus, For Moral Courage Is Yet Needed In Every One Of Its High Places By Him Who Would "confess" Christ. The "offense" Of The Cross, Therefore, Has Led Men In All Ages To Endeavor To Be Rid Of It, And To Deny That It Is The Power Of God In The World.

I Need Scarcely Say That The Beginning And Maintenance Of Life On Earth Is Absolutely And Infinitely Beyond The Range Of All Sound Speculation In Dynamical Science. The Only Contribution Of Dynamics To Theoretical Biology Is Absolute Negation Of Automatic Commencement Or Automatic Maintenance Of Life.

In Physical Science A First Essential Step In The Direction Of Learning Any Subject Is To Find Principles Of Numerical Reckoning And Practicable Methods For Measuring Some Quality Connected With It. I Often Say That When You Can Measure What You Are Speaking About, And Express It In Numbers, You Know Something About It; But When You Cannot Measure It, When You Cannot Express It In Numbers, Your Knowledge Is Of A Meagre And Unsatisfactory Kind; It May Be The Beginning Of Knowledge, But You Have Scarcely In Your Thoughts Advanced To The Stage Of Science, Whatever The Matter May Be.

When You Cannot Measure, Your Knowledge Is Meager And Unsatisfactory.
