"I must confess it was very unexpected and I am very startled at my metamorphosis into a chemist."

Previous Quote

A detective with his murder mystery, a chemist seeking the structure of a new compound, use little of the formal and logical modes of reasoning. Through a series of intuitions, surmises, fancies, they stumble upon the right explanation, and have a knack of seizing it when it once comes within reach.

— Gilbert N. Lewis
