Let us revere, let us worship, but erect and open-eyed, the highest, not the lowest; the future, not the past!
Where is this heaven? You have not even the power to see one grain of sand here. Can you see this earth of ours? The earth appears to us to be stationary, and the sun seems to go round us; but if we could get away from our earth, and look down from the sun upon it, we should see that it is moving round the sun in a circle, and that the sun is standing still. So it is with our conceptions of heaven and hell; they are not real, but only human conceptions.
“If you want your children to turn out well, spend twice as much time with them, and half as much money.”
I act like I don’t care, but inside, I care more than you can ever think.
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them.
