When a scientist is ahead of his times, it is often through misunderstanding of current, rather than intuition of future truth. In science there is never any error so gross that it won't one day, from some perspective, appear prophetic.

  • -- Jean Rostand 罗斯丹

当一个科学家走在时代的前面,往往是由于对当前的误解,而不是对未来真理的直觉。在科学领域,从来没有任何错误如此严重,以至于有一天,从某种角度来看,它不会显得具有预言性。
