Rationalists are Harshing My Empiricist Mellow
"Elsewhere they use a fair semblance of logic, but here their logic
becomes wondrous weird. Elsewhere they generally succeed in preserving
the standard scientific stolidity, but here they frequently manifest and
confess a submission to emotions ill befitting those who sprang from
the head of Brahma. Elsewhere they observe the knightly etiquette of the
lists, but in this field think it no shame to decline the fair
encounter, and, from the safe shelter of the barrier, to jeer about the
presumptive quality of their opponents’ brains."
