"I am only conscious of any satisfaction in Scientific Reading or thinking when it rounds off into a poetical generality and vagueness"

- Wilfred Owen

About this Quote

He only feels this satisfaction when the scientific expertise he has actually gotten is able to be transformed right into verse or a basic, unclear idea. This suggests that Owen sees science as a concrete and also valid pursuit, yet he thinks that real understanding and appreciation of science comes when it is translated into an abstract concept, like poetry. Owen is not thinking about the min information of clinical understanding, yet instead the bigger suggestions that can be theorized from it. This quote highlights Owen's appreciation for the junction of scientific research and also art as well as the power of abstract thinking.
