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

I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing
If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration
