If I Had Only Known,

Great Spirits Have Always Found Violent Opposition From Mediocre Minds. The Latter Cannot Understand It When A Man Does Not Thoughtlessly Submit To Hereditary Prejudices But Honestly And Courageously Uses His Intelligence.

If People Are Good Because They Fear Punishment, And Hope For Reward, Then We Are A Sorry Lot Indeed.

I Never Think Of The Future - It Comes Soon Enough.

The Most Beautiful Emotion We Can Experience Is The Mystical. It Is The Power Of All True Art And Science. He To Whom This Emotion Is A Stranger, Who Can No Longer Wonder And Stand Rapt In Awe, Is As Good As Dead. To Know That What Is Impenetrable To Us Really Exists, Manifesting Itself As The Highest Wisdom And The Most Radiant Beauty, Which Our Dull Faculties Can Comprehend Only In Their Most Primitive Forms - This Knowledge, This Feeling, Is At The Center Of True Religiousness. In This Sense, And In This Sense Only, I Belong To The Rank Of Devoutly Religious Men.

A Perfection Of Means, And Confusion Of Aims, Seems To Be Our Main Problem.
