Digging through a dusty geologic treatise, I unearthed this little gem, embedded in the text:

Geologists make better detectives that biologists or physicists, because they are used to working with faulty data!


Actually a very interesting book which is 750 pages, took 20 years to write and covers the entire geological history of the Earth. And still very well written and quite readable. Although I may never actually finish it...
