Worth noting observation ‘But the man of science, who forgetting the limits of philosophical inquiry, slides from these formulae and symbols into what is commonly understood by materialism seems to me to place himself on a level with the mathematician who should mistake the x’s and y’s with which he works his problems, for real entities, and with this further disadvantage, as compared with the mathematician, that the blunders of the latter are of no practical consequence, while the error of systematic materialism may paralyse the energies and destroy the beauty of a life.’ - Thomas Huxley.
