Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense, differing from the
later only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods
differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and
thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
-- Thomas Henry Huxley
