It is more likely to be dying by your pen; despairing by your pen; burying hope and heart and youth and courage in your ink-stand.

The whole basis and organization of capitalist science will be revolutionized. Science will become materialistic, hence truly scientific. God will be banished from the laboratories as well as from the schools.
