Excerpt from Manual of Practical Physiology: Designed for the Physiological Laboratory Course, in the Curriculum of the American Association of Medical Colleges

"Ich behaupte aber dass in jeder besonderen Naturlehre nur so viel eigentliche Wissenschaft angetroffen werden konne, als darin Mathematik anzutreffen ist." - Kant, in preface to "Metaphys: Anfangsgründe der Naturwissenschaft" (Werke, Ed. Hartenstein, Vol. IV, p. 360).

"I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of meager and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely in your thoughts advanced to the stage of science." - (Kelvin.)
