Emily Dickinson

My dad sent me this poem in an email today:

"Faith" is a fine invention
When Gentlemen can see
But Microscopes are prudent
In an Emergency

--Emily Dickinson




This needs so little commentary, but speaks so perfectly (and succinctly!) to how universal the themes of discovery and science are. And Emily Dickinson, how awesome is she?
