Science Does Not Permit Exceptions.

The Science Of Life Is A Superb And Dazzlingly Lighted Hall Which May Be Reached Only By Passing Through A Long And Ghastly Kitchen.

The Fact That Knowledge Endlessly Recedes As The Investigator Is About To Grasp It Is What Constitutes At The Same Time His Torment And Happiness.
