Ford Whitman Harris and exploration
Explore your field well, know its each and every nook and cranny, but do not shy away from its boundaries and do not avoid other territories. How and why we divided the knowledge of the world into different fields, no one can answer, but those arbitrary boundaries are there for you to send down under.
