Barfield on Art and Science

"It is no longer enough that an occasional artist here and there should see his parcel of truth and speak it out, while the actual direction taken by civilisation continues to be wholly determined by a soi-disant scientific method of knowledge.  Science must itself become an art, and art a science; either they must mingle, or Western civilisation, as we know it, must perish to make room for one that may have spirit enough to learn how to know God's earth as He actually made it."

--Owen Barfield, from "Thinking and Thought" in Romanticism Comes of Age
