From “Royal Altess” by Thomas Mann
“You think? Your are wrong. I’am not an aristocrat, I’m all the opposite, by reason and by taste.
“Proof is for mathematical theorems and alcoholic beverages. It’s not for science.”
You’ll agree with me that if I decline the vivas of the people, it’s not out of pride: I have the taste of humanity and kindness.
The greatness of mankind is a miserable thing and often, it seems to me that men should know it , and conduct themselves humanly and with kindness and not to seek to be humiliated or to cow tow to one another.

“Proof is for mathematical theorems and alcoholic beverages. It’s not for science.”
Michael Mann goes on to explain that science is all about “credible theories” and “best explanations” and his critics are not offering up any of those.
Mann’s attempt to separate proof from science stems from increasing public awareness that the warming predicted by the high-sensitivity models that Mann and others have championed just have not occurred over the last 15 years.
