Scientists are people of very dissimilar temperaments doing different things in
different ways. Among scientists are collectors, classifiers, and compulsive
tidiers-up; many are detectives by temperament and many are explorers; some are artists and others artisans.
There are poet scientists and philosopher scientists and even a few mystics.
-- Peter Medewar
