Shakespeare, anticipating you
and your "Creative Chemistry," has shown the utter
untenableness of your position:
Nature is made better by no mean,
But nature makes that mean: so o'er that art,
Which, you say, adds to nature, is an art
That nature makes.
How can you say that art surpasses nature when you know very
well that nothing man is able to make can in any way equal the
perfection of all nature's products?
It is blasphemous of you to claim that man can improve the
works of God as they appear in nature. Only the Creator can
create. Man only imitates, destroys or defiles God's handiwork.
No, it was not in momentary absence of mind that I claimed that man
could improve upon nature in the making of dyes. I not only said it, but
I proved it. I not only proved it, but I can back it up. I will give a
million dollars to anybody finding in nature dyestuffs as numerous,
varied, brilliant, pure and cheap as those that are manufactured in the
laboratory.
