  • Geology, perhaps more than any other department of natural philosophy, is a science of contemplation. It requires no experience or complicated apparatus, no minute processes upon the unknown processes of matter. It demands only an enquiring mind and senses alive to the facts almost everywhere presented in nature. And as it may be acquired without much difficulty, so it may be improved without much painful exertion.

  • We must reason in natural philosophy not from what we hope, or even expect, but from what we perceive.

    Humphry Davy (1840). “The Collected Works of Sir Humphry Davy (etc.)”, p.303
