St Albert the Great.
"In studying nature we have not to inquire how God the Creator may, as He freely wills, use His creatures to work miracles and thereby show forth His power; we have rather to inquire what Nature with its immanent causes can naturally bring to pass." – St Albert the Great, patron of scientists, whose feast is today (15 Nov). Detail from the painting entitled "Generación Espiritual y Temporal de Santo Domingo de Guzmán" in the church of Santo Domingo in San Cristobal de La Laguna, Tenerife.
