Perseverance Is A Silent Power

When I Consider The Narrow Limits Within Which Our Active And Inquiring Faculties Are Confined; When I See How All Our Energies Are Wasted In Providing For Mere Necessities, Which Again Have No Further End Than To Prolong A Wretched Existence; And Then That All Our Satisfaction Concerning Certain Subjects Of Investigation Ends In Nothing Better Than A Passive Resignation... When I Consider All This... I Am Silent.

One Must Be Something, In Order To Do Something.

Everything Is Both Simpler Than We Can Imagine And More Entangled Than We Can Conceive.

Sound And Sufficient Reason Falls, After All, To The Share Of But Few Men, And Those Few Men Exert Their Influence In Silence.

Individuality Of Expression Is The Beginning And End Of All Art.
