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
His part is mercy, ours is endless praise
You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over
Do one thing every day that scares you
Not to postpone is strength in action
A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool
I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day
