BORN:
September 3, 1907, Lincoln, Nebraska
"In
the end, science as we know it has two basic types of practitioners. One
is the educated man who still has a controlled sense of wonder before the
universal mystery, whether it hides in a snail's eye or within the light
that impinges on that delicate organ. The second kind of observer is the
extreme reductionist who is so busy stripping things apart that the
tremendous mystery has been reduced to a trifle, to intangibles not worth
troubling one's head about."
