To be content with life, or to live merrily, rather, all that is required is that we bestow on all things only a fleeting, superficial glance; the more thoughtful we become the more earnest we grow

Knowledge is like a baobab tree - one person's arms are not enough to encompass it

Man may be considered as a superior species of animal that produces philosophies and poems in about the same way a silkworm produces their cocoons and bees their hives

Nature never makes excellent things for mean or no uses

Those who never have time do least

I was taught that the way of progress was neither swift nor easy.
