There is nothing to be learnt from a Professor, which is not to be met with in Books
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
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
Quiet people have the loudest minds
O Contentment, make me rich! for without thee there is no wealth
The progressive development of man is vitally dependent on invention
What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies
Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again and you will be filled with joy
Rise above sectional interests and private ambitions... Pass from matter to spirit. Matter is diversity; spirit is light, life and unity
