Their plight is paradoxical: they have realized their world only through intense mental effort, yet this effort finds no legitimate place in the world it so painstakingly comprehends.

Why is the moral life of a physicist regarded as his or her own private affair?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis exclusion of human qualities from science has practical as well as theoretical consequences.
