"Only to often on meeting scientific men, even……" — H. L. Mencken

Only to often on meeting scientific men, even those of genuine distiction,… - H. L. Mencken
"Only to often on meeting scientific men, even those of genuine distiction, one finds that they are dull fellows and very stupid. They know one thing to excess; they know nothing else. Pursuing facts too doggedly and unimaginatively, they miss all the charming things that are not facts. ... Too much learning, like too little learning, is an unpleasant and dangerous thing."
