"Theory is worth but little, unless it can……" — Charles Caleb Colton

"Theory is worth but little, unless it can explain its own phenomena, and it must effect this without contradicting itself; therefore, the facts are sometimes assimilated to the theory, rather than the theory to the facts."

Charles Caleb Colton
