A criação científica
"The scientific outlook, therefore, is a matter of importance to mankind , either for good or evil. But the scientific outlook itself is twofold, like the artistic outlook. The creator and the appreciator are different people, and require quite different habits of mind. The scientific creator, like every other, is apt to be inspired by passions to which he gives an intellectualist expression amounting to an undemonstrated faith, without which he probably achieve little. The appreciator does not need this kind of faith; he can see things in proportion and make necessary reservations, and may regard the creator as a crude and barbaric person in comparison with himself."
Bertrand Russell
