"Our disputants put me in mind of the scuttle fish, that when he is unable to extricate himself, blackens all the wate…" — Joseph Addison

Not to unlearn what you have learned is the most necessary kind of learning.

Thought means life, since those who do not think so do not live in any high or real sense. Thinking makes the man

Who knows, the mind has the key to all things besides

One must be a wise reader to quote wisely and well

The investigation of the meaning of words is the beginning of education

The hours of folly are measured by the clock, but of wisdom no clock can measure.
