George Wilson Quotes

His Theory Of The Universe Seems To Have Been, That It Consisted Solely Of A Multitude Of Objects Which Could Be Weighed, Numbered, And Measured; And The Vocation To Which He Considered Himself Called Was, To Weigh, Number And Measure As Many Of Those Objects As His Allotted Three-score Years And Ten Would Permit. This Conviction Biased All His Doings, Alike His Great Scientific Enterprises, And The Petty Details Of His Daily Life.
