Not only do your metaphysics and sciences suffer, but your daily experience as a human being is far less than it could be. [...]

[...] We’re curious about all of those other disciplines in the arts, sciences, and humanities, of course, so we always look forward to such visitors — though sometimes any new relationship “takes,” and sometimes it doesn’t.
