All knowledge degenerates into probability
Scottish Enlightenment philosopher, historian, economist, and essayist, who is best known today for his highly influential system of philosophical empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism.
The heart of man is made to reconcile the most glaring contradictions
There is nothing to be learnt from a Professor, which is not to be met with in Books
Art may make a suit of clothes, but nature must produce a man
Explanation is where the mind rests
A wise man apportions his beliefs to the evidence
Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them
Learning is an ornament in prosperity, a refuge in adversity, and a provision in old age.
Never discourage anyone...who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.
To make light of philosophy is to be a true philosopher
And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music
I was born and have ever remained in the most humble walks of life
There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind
