"I am one of the men of the world who are in earnest.

My life is dedicated to science.

Science is at once my religion and my life.

It seems to me that you and I have something in common.

You, too, move in the unusual ways.
Your life is dedicated to doing good amongst the unworthy of your sex.
Whether my brain approves of your efforts or not, you compel my admiration--my most respectful admiration.
