“In Newton's Time It Was Possible For An Educated Person To Have A Grasp Of The Whole Of Human Knowledge, At Least In Outline. But Since Then, The Pace Of The Development Of Science Has Made This Impossible.

Further, The Rate Of Progress Is So Rapid That What One Learns At School Or University Is Always A Bit Out Of Date.”
