The store is well-nigh inexhaustible, if only it could be tapped.

We used to think that if we knew one, we knew two, because one and one are two. We are finding that we must learn a great deal more about "and".

Better admit that there was some truth both in science and religion; and if they must fight, let it be elsewhere than in the brain of a hard-working scientist.
