Every man who has declared that some other man is an ass or a scoundrel, gets angry when the other man conclusively shows that the assertion was erroneous.

Young people love what is interesting and odd, no matter how true or false it is. More mature minds love what is interesting and odd about truth. Fully mature intellects, finally, love truth, even when it appears plain and simple, boring to the ordinary person; for they have noticed that truth tends to reveal its highest wisdom in the guise of simplicity.

The love of truth has its reward in heaven and even on earth.

Every man is a creative cause of what happens, a primum mobile with an original movement.

If you buy the why, the how is infinitely bearable

As a result, nature is something entirely different from what comes to mind when we invoke its name.
