"Go my sons, burn your books and buy stout shoes, climb the mountains, search the valleys, the deserts, the sea shores, and the deep recesses of the earth... Observe and experiment without ceasing, for in this way and no other will you arrive at a knowledge of the true nature of things."

-Petrus Severinus (16th Century Danish Alchemist)
