This is an exaggeration. Mathematics and physics teach you a way of thinking. Engineering another way. Chemistry, biology et al require another. Philosophy (king of the sciences) and the humanities yet another way.
FWIW MIT has a significant philosophy department and a whole school of Humanities. You can get a degree from that school, and people do. These are historians, linguists, musicians etc who also took differential equations, lab science, E&M etc
