Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them
Scottish Enlightenment philosopher, historian, economist, and essayist, who is best known today for his highly influential system of philosophical empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism.
All knowledge degenerates into probability
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
You must keep your judgement clear of the mists of vain conceit
A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart
All good things are wild and free
To eat less is healthy, to speak less is wisdom, and to sleep less is worship
Whosoever hides his secret keeps his safety, safeguarded with himself
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
