ESSAY ON CLASSIFICATION By LOUIS AGASSIZ
The human mind is in tune with nature, and much that appears as a result of the working of our intelligence is only the natural expression of that pre-established harmony.
On the other hand the whole universe may be considered as a school in which man is taught to know himself, and his relations to his fellow beings, as well as to the First Cause of all that exists.
