“We could almost believe that we are destined by Providence to an unsettled position on the globe, so invariably is a love of change implanted in the young.

“My father died when I was two years old. But my mother was quite capable. She raised three children with his war pension which was peanuts. Yet we did not want for anything.

“A taxonomy of abilities, like a taxonomy anywhere else in science, is apt to strike a certain type of impatient student as a gratuitous orgy of pedantry. Doubtless, compulsions to intellectual tidiness express themselves prematurely at times, and excessively at others, but a good descriptive taxonomy, as Darwin found in developing his theory, and as Newton found in the work of Kepler, is the mother of laws and theories.” LawMotherCertainFoundAbilityStudentsTheoryTypeIntellectualStrikesDevelopingCompulsionImpatientNewtonPedantryKeplerTaxonomy Author:Raymond Cattell
