“A single hour a day, steadily given to the study of some interesting subject, brings unexpected accumulations of knowledge”

“We come too late to say anything which has not been said already”

“We can recognize the dawn and the decline of love by the uneasiness we feel when alone together”

“The secret of success lies not in doing your own work, but in recognizing the right man to do it”

“Everything has been said, and we have come too late, now that men have been living and thinking for seven thousand years and more”

“It is not the quantity but the quality of knowledge which determines the mind's dignity”
