Quote by Edward Tufte

The commonality between science and art is in trying to see profoundly - to develop strategies of seeing and showing.

The commonality between science and art is in trying to see

Summary

This quote suggests that both science and art share a similarity in their pursuit of seeing and perceiving things deeply. Science aims to explore and understand the natural world by developing strategies to observe and make discoveries. Similarly, art encompasses a creative approach to visually and emotionally represent realities and perceptions. Both disciplines involve the process of seeking, developing new ways of seeing, and conveying their insights to the audience. Whether through empirical observations or aesthetic expressions, science and art ultimately strive to enhance our understanding of the world around us.

He who commends the nature of the soul as the supreme good, and condemns the nature of the flesh as evil, at once both carnally desires the soul, and carnally flies the flesh, because he feels thus from human vanity, not from divine truth.cited in The Essays of Montaigne http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/3/6/0/3600/3600.txt
