"...A good science is a good story.  We're all storytellers, you know, all of us, from the novelist to the artist trying to say something new and take us in a new direction on canvas to scientists who have discovered something.  And when they discover something, they want to tell a story.  They want to fill out and explain to others why, where it came from, what's happening, what kind of a process is going on and where is it going to lead?" 
     --Edward O. Wilson, "Advice for Future Scientists," interview by Ira Flatow,
       Talk of the Nation, NPR (June 21, 2013).
