"Tidak ada periode karir [Michael Faraday] yang tak tertandingi dia tertarik pada utilitas. Dia asyik mengurai teka-teki alam semesta, pada awalnya teka-teki kimia, pada periode-periode selanjutnya, teka-teki fisik. Sejauh dia peduli, pertanyaan tentang utilitas tidak pernah diajukan. Kecurigaan utilitas apa pun akan membatasi keingintahuannya yang gelisah. Pada akhirnya, utilitas menghasilkan, tetapi itu tidak pernah menjadi kriteria di mana eksperimennya yang tanpa henti dapat dikenakan."

--- Abraham Flexner

Versi Bahasa Inggris

At no period of [Michael Faraday's] unmatched career was he interested in utility. He was absorbed in disentangling the riddles of the universe, at first chemical riddles, in later periods, physical riddles. As far as he cared, the question of utility was never raised. Any suspicion of utility would have restricted his restless curiosity. In the end, utility resulted, but it was never a criterion to which his ceaseless experimentation could be subjected.
