Nothing is more beautiful than the love that has weathered the storms of life. The love of the young for the young, that is the beginning of life. But the love of the old for the old, that is the beginning of things longer.

Though this be madness, yet there is method in it. Hamlet

William Shakespeare

Beauty is but the sensible image of the Infinite. Like truth and justice it lives within us like virtue and the moral law it is a companion of the soul.

George Bancroft

What I learned I no longer know; the little I still know, I guessed.

Sebastian Roch Nicolas Chamfort

When we believe ourselves in possession of the only truth, we are likely to be indifferent to common everyday truths.

Eric Hoffer

Because philosophy arises from awe, a philosopher is bound in his way to be a lover of myths and poetic fables. Poets and philosophers are alike in being big with wonder.

Thomas Aquinas

I love doing the stunts. It's as simple as that.

Gerard Butler

Science can never grapple with the irrational. That is why it has no future before it, in this world.

Oscar Wilde

Sometimes small things can become very large, indeed.

Rick Riordan

With children use force with men reason; such is the natural order of things. The wise man requires no law.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

Mathematics are the result of mysterious powers which no one understands, and which the unconscious recognition of beauty must play an important part. Out of an infinity of designs a mathematician chooses one pattern for beauty's sake and pulls it down to earth.

Marston Morse

The beauty of golf, you're in charge out here.

Mike Weir

What an antithetical mind! -- tenderness, roughness -- delicacy, coarseness -- sentiment, sensuality -- soaring and groveling, dirt and deity -- all mixed up in that one compound of inspired clay!

Lord (George Gordon) Byron
