    “When we say “science” we can either mean any manipulation of the inventive and organizing power of the human intellect: or we can mean such an extremely different thing as the religion of science the vulgarized derivative from this pure activity manipulated by a sort of priestcraft into a great religious and political weapon.”
    —Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    “After science comes sentiment.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
