"Because science flourishes, must poesy decline? The complaint……" — Hugh Miller

"Because science flourishes, must poesy decline? The complaint serves but to betray the weakness of the class who urge it. True, in an age like the present,-considerably more scientific than poetical,-science substitutes for the smaller poetry of fiction, the great poetry of truth."

Hugh Miller
