We live in an age in which superfluous ideas abound and essential ideas are lacking.
No one is mediocre who has good sense and good sentiments.
There is in the soul a taste for the good, just as there is in the body an appetite for enjoyment.
Truth consists of having the same idea about something that God has.
The mind conceives with pain, but it brings forth with delight.
Heaven is for those who think of it.
