SCIENTIFIC USE OF THE IMAGINATION. 163 



there is no God, as with the theist who professes to know 

 the mind of God. &quot;Two things,&quot; said Immanuel Kant, 

 &quot; fill me with awe : the starry heavens and the sense of 

 moral responsibility in man.&quot; And in his hours of health 

 and strength and sanity, when the stroke of action has 

 ceased and the pause of reflection has set in, the scientific 

 investigator finds himself overshadowed by the same awe. 

 Breaking contact with the hampering details of earth, it 

 associates him with a power which gives fulness and tone 

 to his existence, but which he can neither analyze nor com 

 prehend.
