“Philosophers, if they have much imagination, are apt to let it loose as well as other people, and in such cases are sometimes led to mistake a fancy for a fact. Geologists, in particular, have very frequently amused themselves in this way, and it is not a little amusing to follow them in their fancies and their waking dreams. Geology, indeed, in this view, may be called a romantic science.” PeopleIfsWayWellsMayLittlesSometimesFactsDreamRomanceScienceImaginationViewsMistakeCasesParticularAccountsPhilosopherFancyWakingAmusingAmusedGeologyGeologist Author:Granville Penn
