The lame man who keeps the right road outstrips the runner who takes a wrong one. Nay, it is obvious that when a man runs the wrong way, the more active and swift he is the further he will go astray.

-Bacon, Francis,Viscount St Albans
  Novum Organum.

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

-Bible (Old Testament)
Isaiah 35:5^7.

Jesus answered and said unto them,Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

-Bible (NewTestament)
St Matthew11:4^5.

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

-Einstein, Albert
Science, Philosophy and Religion:  A Symposium, ch.13.
