    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “Science in England, in America, is jealous of theory, hates the name of love and moral purpose. There’s revenge for this humanity. What manner of man does science make? The boy is not attracted. He says, I do not wish to be such a kind of man as my professor is.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Our technology forces us to live mythically, but we continue to think fragmentarily, and on single, separate planes.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
