The lost memory of a oration
From Professor Chi-Hai-Yuan of Sociology Deartment in NTU.
At the beginning he quickily caught our attention by saying
there's a person(I forgot who) who pointed out that liberal
arts requires much less creativity or intelligence compared
with natural science. Something like that.
I suddenly feel that it's just that you put the quest of unknown
in the perspective of God's creations. Doing research about
DNA, religiously speaking, is like to try to solve the mystery
God had left.
And liberal arts is more like to distill anything as possibly
as one can out of the artificials.
Both are in quest of the unknown. While one is a kind of
knowing what we do not know, another is knowing what we do
know.
