Elogía a la naturaleza
"El científico no estudia la naturaleza porque es útil, sino porque le cautiva, y le cautiva porque es bella.
Si la naturaleza no fuera hermosa, no valdría la pena conocerla, y si no valiera la pena conocerla, tampoco valdría la pena vivir. Por supuesto, no me refiero aquí a la belleza que estimula los sentidos, la de las cualidades y las apariencias; no es que la desdeñe, en absoluto, sino que ésta nada tiene que hacer con la ciencia. Me refiero a la belleza más profunda, la que procede del orden armonioso de las partes y que puede captar una inteligencia pura."
Jules Henri Poincaré (1854-1912)

"The scientist doesn't study nature because it is useful, is because he delights, and he delights in because it's beautiful.
If nature were not beautiful, not worth knowing, and if not worth knowing, not worth living. Of course, I am not referring to the beauty that stimulates the senses, the qualities and appearances, is not that insignificant at all, but it has nothing to do with science. I mean the deepest beauty, which comes from the harmonious order of the parts and which a pure intelligence can grasp."
Jules Henri Poincaré (1854-1912)
