Those who seek the direct road to truth should not bother with any object of which they cannot have a certainty equal to the demonstrations of arithmetic and geometry.
- Descartes
The slenderest knowledge that may be obtained of the highest things is more desirable than the most certain knowledge obtained of lesser things.
- St. Thomas Aquinas
All people dream: but not equally.
Those who dream by night
in the dusty recesses of their minds
wake in the day to find that it was vanity.
But the dreamers of the day
are dangerous people,
for they may act their dream with open eyes
to make it possible.
T.E. Lawrence
Amazing Grace, how sweet thy sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind but now I see.
An American Hym
