Hard on Soft Science/Quotes

"We have friends in other fields--in biology, for instance. We physicists often look at them and say, 'You know the reason you fellows are making so little progress?' (Actually I don't know any field where they are making more rapid progress than they are in biology today.) 'You should use more mathematics, like we do.' They could answer us--but they're polite, so I'll answer for them: 'What you should do in order for us to make more rapid progress is to make the electron microscope 100 times better.'"

—Richard P. Feynman "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom"
