Quote

To prejudge other men's notions before we have looked into them is not to show their darkness but to put out our own eye

The thoughts that come often unsought, and, as it were, drop into the mind, are commonly the most valuable of any we have

Logic is the anatomy of thought

As to the pure mind all things are pure, so to the poetic mind all things are poetical

Some people read because they are too lazy to think

The worst thing you can possibly do is worrying and thinking about what you could have done
