In practice we, in the world, must do business with each other.

The really valuable thing in the pageant of human life seems to me not the State but the creative, sentient individual, the personality; it alone creates the noble and the sublime, while the herd as such remains dull in thought and dull in feeling.

Albert Einstein

Einstein is an analytical mathematician seeking to give a physical interpretation to the conclusions of his mathematical process. In this he is hampered by a load of contradictory and absurd assumptions of the school that he follows, which throws him into all manner of difficulty. Einstein has such a faculty for embracing both sides of a contradiction that one would have to be of the same frame of mind to follow his thought, it is so peculiarly his own. The whole Relativity theory is as easy to follow as the path of a bat in the air at night.

Jeremiah Joseph

How can a bishop marry? How can he flirt? The most he can say is I will see you in the vestry after service.

Sydney Smith

Don't you know that every perfect life would mean the end of art?

Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.
