I'm not sure the quote, "In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice, while in practice there is" was from this Benjamin Brewster. Another Benjamin Brewster, who later became the Right Reverend Benjamin Brewster, Bishop of Maine graduated from Yale in 1882 when this quote appeared in the February edition of the Yale Literary Magazine.

In the same year, the Standard Oil Trust was formed and this Benjamin Brewster (the Financier), was one of the trustees. Furthermore, I see no evidence that he was enrolled at Yale during this time--or ever for that matter. [See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Brewster_(financier)]
