The man with a new idea is a Crank until the idea succeeds.

There are four powers: memory and intellect, desire and covetousness. The two first are mental and the others sensual. The three senses sight, hearing, and smell cannot well be prevented; touch and taste not at all.

I have far more respect for the person with a single idea who gets there than for the person with a thousand ideas who does nothing.

If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.

We are here for experience, and experience is a preparation to know the Truth when we meet it.

Even the hard times are part of your life story. If you acknowledge them and move past them, they eventually add up to the experience that makes you wise.
