[Mr. Bird]

Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe-a spirit vastly superior to that of man.... In this way the pursuit of science leads to a religious feeling of a special sort, which is indeed quite different from the religiosity of someone more naive.

--Albert Einstein

Oh, what he may have accomplished had he not suppressed his intellect with such spiritual feelings!
