Humphry Davy Quotes
Geology, perhaps more than any other department of natural philosophy, is a science of contemplation. It requires no experience or complicated apparatus, no minute processes upon the unknown processes of matter.

And as it may be acquired without much difficulty, so it may be improved without much painful exertion.
