whether we like it or not

“The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest,

but covered with mosses and lichens

and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste;

 

The knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works,

which still supports a green sprout here and there,

but even this is liable to dry rot.”

 

~ Henry David Thoreau ~
