Glenn T. Seaborg - On Literate Men

"There is a beauty in discovery. 

 There is mathematics in music, 

a kinship of science and poetry in the description of nature, and exquisite form in a molecule. 

Attempts to place different disciplines in different camps are revealed as artificial in the face of the unity of knowledge. 

All literate men are sustained by the philosopher, the historian, the political analyst, the economist, the scientist, the poet, the artisan, and the musician." ~  Glenn T. Seaborg, scientist, Nobel laureate
