One of the greatest joys known to man is to take a flight into ignorance in search of knowledge.
Knowledge is power only if a man knows what facts not to bother about.
Most remarks that are worth making are commonplace remarks. The things that makes them worth saying is that we really mean them.
I sometimes suspect that half our difficulties are imaginary and that if we kept quiet about them they would disappear.
Every man of genius is considerably helped by being dead.
