The structure of science and mathematics has no beauty without the facades of engineering. The cold steel facts of natural law are indissoluble but unsightly; the humanity of creative application turns gravity into grandeur, astronomy into amazement, metaphysics into magnificence. It does not hide its ugliness, but derives its beauty.
Current Mood: Irritated
