("To know where you can find anything, that in short is the largest part of learning.") -- Anonymous "Nomina si nescis, perit et cognitio rerum." ("Who knoweth not the names, knoweth not the subject.") -- Carl von Linne (1707 - 1778) "Knowledge is of two kinds: we know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it." -- Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784) "No one can be really a master of any science unless he studies its special history, which again is bound up with the general history of humanity." -- Auguste Comte (1798 - 1857)
