" "If one divided all of human science into two parts - the one common to all men, the other particular to the learned - the latter would be quite small in comparison with the former. But we are hardly aware of what is generally attained, because it is attained without thought and even before the age of reason; because, moreover, learning is noticed only by its differences, and as in algebraic equations, common quantities count for nothing.

Bitkilerle salt öğretim üyesi ya da yazar olamk için uğraşılırsa, bu zevk yiter ve bitkiler artıki tutkularımız için birer araçtan başka bir şey olmazlar; herkes, bilmek değil de bildiğini göstermek kaygısına düşer ve ormanların ortası bile, kendini beğendirmek isteyenlerin beceri ve yetenek sahnesi durumunu alır.
