“The time is coming when really learned men will again be ashamed of not seeing the value of all the uses of mind: when nothing but thoughtlessness or impudence, mercurial brain or brazen forehead, will aver that no knowledge is practical, except that which ends in the use of material instruments.”—Prof. De Morgan (Arithmetical Books 1847, p. 54).
