Quote clarified

To the editor:

I would like to offer a correction to Dennis Dailey’s opinion concerning my last quote (Public Forum, June 1). The quote I gave about the inscription on Spooner Hall is from Proverbs 8:35a, not the thought of some person concerning a quest of science and the scientific method. The former quote about relying on our own understanding is from Proverbs 28:26a.
