I think a lot of science can seem like magic before it's explained properly. Sometimes we don't have the observations, the data, or the right words yet to explain it. Surely there was a time long ago when people watched a butterfly emerge from a chrysalis and thought of it as magic. Gina Linko
About This Quote

Surely there was a time long ago when people watched a butterfly emerge from a chrysalis and thought of it as magic.
