“There dwell the children of the dark Night, the dread gods Sleep and Death.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
“It is not too much to say that next after the passion to learn there is no quality so indispensable to the successful prosecution of science as imagination.

—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
