Everything in this world is growing to a state of purity, of perfection. This is where we speed it up; this is where we make the changes to metals and to waters that the world itself does in its deep bowels, over centuries, with heat like hatching an egg into a chicken. We make it hotter; we make it faster. This is where we can test what we know, and see what we learn. This is the heart of my life’s work.”
