Excerpt from The Movements of the Earth
The present century is remarkable for the manner in which the unity of Nature, and therefore the unity of Science, which is the study of nature, is being demonstrated to us. We live at a period which, in the coming time, will be looked upon as a very memorable one, because it has taught us that there is as distinct a unity of matter in the universe, as in Newton's time it was clearly demonstrated that there was a unity of force.
