" ...après un long sommeil, les mêmes hypothèses
ressucistent, sans doute nous reviennent-elles
avec des vêtements neufs et plus riches, mais
le fond reste le même et le masque nouveau
dont elles s'affublent ne saurait tromper
l'homme de science..."
"...after a long sleep, the same theories reappear, without doubt they return richer and with
new clothes, but the foundation remains the same and the new mask which they wear should not
mislead the man of knowledge..."
