¶ Discovery
Index Entry
In respect to the words ‘Science: A creative Discipline,’ I am convinced that the word ‘creation’ belongs to God and nobody else. We are all endowed with extraordinary faculties. The universe is endowed with extraordinary generalized principles. The principles are progressively discoverable only by man’s faculties. Man may interrelate them to produce unique results. The individual at times fulfills high potentials with which he is endowed. When he does seem to be creative, however, the men who are spoken of as creative always refer to what they have done as discovery. They do not claim creativity. Through exploration and experiment they acquire sublime conviction of the a priori eternality of the verities. I cannot accredit ‘disciplined creativity.’
