1. Learn by heart the poem “The Horrid Voice of Science” by Vachel Lindsay. 

There's machinery in the butterfly;  There's a mainspring to the bee;  There's hydraulics to a daisy,  And contraptions to a tree.  If we could see the birdie  That makes the chirping sound  With x-ray, scientific eyes,  We could see the wheels go round.  And I hope all men  Who think like this  Will soon lie Underground.
