الصفحة 19 - But the inner need of believing that this world of nature is a sign of something more spiritual and eternal than itself is just as strong and authoritative in those who feel it, as the inner need of uniform laws of causation ever can be in a professionally scientific head.

And if needs of ours outrun the visible universe, why may not that be a sign that an invisible universe is there?
