Summary

This quote implies that logic alone is not enough to discover truth. It suggests that one must first have an intuitive or innate understanding of truth before using logic to confirm or clarify it.

Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow.
