Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper. - Francis Bacon

"Philosophy when superficially studied, excites doubt, when thoroughly explored, it dispels it."

"The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery."

"For the things of this world cannot be made known without a knowledge of mathematics."

"The momentous thing in human life is the art of winning the soul to good or evil."

"Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted ...but to weigh and consider."
