Peut-être le savoir est-il trop grand, mais peut-être aussi l'homme devient-il trop petit. Peut-être qu'à force de s'agenouiller devant les atomes il finit par avoir une âme de la taille de ce qu'il adore. Peut-être le spécialiste n'est-il qu'un lâche qui a peur de regarder le monde extérieur à sa petite cage.
