Thomas H. Huxley: "Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peas' cods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data."
