Science would be ruined if (like sports) it were to put competition above everything else, and if it were to clarify the rules of competition by withdrawing entirely into narrowly defined specialties. The rare scholars who are nomads-by-choice are essential to the intellectual welfare of the settled disciplines.

    tiede pilaantuisi, jos (kuten urheilu) se asettaisi kilpailun kaiken muun yläpuolelle, ja jos se selventäisi kilpailusääntöjä vetämällä kokonaan kapeasti määriteltyihin erikoisuuksiin. harvinaiset tutkijat, jotka ovat valinnassa nomadit, ovat välttämättömiä vakiintuneiden tieteiden henkisen hyvinvoinnin kannalta.

    depereant si scientia (similis ludis) ponet eam in competition est super omne aliud et in intuitu quoque clarificandi aspectus si praecepta Domini in competition omnino subtrahendo scilicet stricte propria defined. rara qui in tabernaculis morabantur ad scholarium arbitrium-by-sunt essentialia rei de qua perpetuo torrens disciplinis intellectualis pacem seminis sui pertinerent.
