Arnold Haultain Quotes
Nature's lessons are hard to learn. Harder still is it to translate Nature's lessons to others.

If, in these pages, there are scattered speculations semi-mystical, semi-intelligible, perhaps even transcending the boundaries of rigid logic, I must simply aver that i put in writing that only which was given me to say.
