The Insect World of J. Henri Fabre Quotes

“Science too proceeds by lantern-flashes; it explores nature's inexhaustible mosiac piece by piece. Too often the wick lacks oil; the glass panes of the lantern may not be clean. No matter : his work is not in vain who first recognizes and shows to others one speck of the vast unknown.”
― Jean-Henri Fabre, The Insect World of J. Henri Fabre
