Excerpt from Gateways to Literature: And Other Essays

Two winters ago Columbia University invited its teaching staff, its students and its friends to a series of lectures which set forth the essential quality and the existing condition of each of the several sciences; and today Columbia University begins another series of lectures devoted to a single one of the arts, - the art of Literature. In the opening decade of this twentieth century, when the triumphs of Science are exultant on all sides of us, there would be a lack of propriety in failing to acknowledge its power and its authority; and a grosser failure would follow any attempt to set up Art as a rival over against Science. Art and Science have each of them their own field; they have each of them their own work to do; and they are not competitors but colleags in the service of humanity, responding to different needs. Man cannot live by Science alone, since Science does not feed the soul; and it is Art which nourishes the heart of man.
