The human understanding of its own nature is prone to suppose the existence of more order and regularity in the world than it finds.
Francis BaconThe men of experiment are like the ant, they only collect and use; the reasoners resemble spiders, who make cobwebs out of their own substance. But the bee takes the middle course, it gathers its material from the flowers of the garden and field, but transforms and digests it by a power of its own.
Francis Bacon
