"Investigating the world, testing out ideas, and trying to discover something new—that's doing science. Science is for questions that scientists think can be answered, while art is for questions that have no single correct answer. It's for the absolutely unanswerable questions that you have to respond to over and over again."
—Poet Jane Hirshfield speaking on Poetry, Science, the Biosphere, and Intimacy with All Things on Tuesday
