Does anyone else find it interesting that science and art
are so tightly coupled?  It's my opinion that the best scientists
and the best artists have in common a strong streak of
creativity.  You don't explain Nature without the creative
inspiration that interprets our observations.  You don't
impact the human spirit without the creative inspiration
to affect our senses.
