Our understanding of the world around us is constantly being redefined and expanded, and so therefore, it is wiser to be passionate about seeking for truth than knowing it.
One column of truth cannot hold an institution of ideas from falling into ignorance. It is wiser that a person of prudence and purpose save his strength for battles that can be won.
True love is quiescent, except in the nascent moments of true humility.
In the company of the accomplished, people hope it will rub off on themselves, in the company of the misfortunate, they fear it!
