The heart of man is made to reconcile the most glaring contradictions
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
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
Experience fails to teach where there is no desire to learn
Take care of your cents: Dollars will take care of themselves
One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane
Liberty of any kind is never lost all at once
Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm
A thousand half-loves must be forsaken to take one whole heart home
