» Conflict » “Reason guides but a small part of man, and the rest obeys feeling, true or false, and passion, good or bad.”
» Cries and Crying » “There are people who laugh to show their fine teeth; and there are those who cry to show their good hearts.”
» Emotions » “Nothing vivifies, and nothing kills, like the emotions.”
» Patience » “There is a slowness in affairs which ripens them, and a slowness which rots them.”
» Philosophers and Philosophy » “Philosophers call God ”the great unknown” ”The great misknown” is more like it!”
» Poetry and Poets » “Poetry is the exquisite expression of exquisite expressions.”
» Quotations » “A fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand of a fool.”
» Science and Scientists » “Science is for those who learn, poetry is for those who know.”
