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
Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others
Radium is not to enrich any one. It is an element; it is for all people
In every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks
The very essence of romance is uncertainty
The knowledge of all things is possible
The root of suffering is attachment
