Ideas and Principles are Independent of People
In truth, ideas and principles are independent of men; the application of them and their illustration is man's duty and merit. The time will come when the author of a view shall be set aside, and the view only taken cognizance of. This will be the millennium of Science.
Sir Archibald Geikie, George Wilson, Memoir of Edward Forbes (1861)
Notes
Science will attain a new level of prosperity if we put men aside and focus on the ideas.
