(On the temperature of water in wells) The reason why the water in wells becomes colder in summer is that the earth is then rarefied by the heat, and releases into the air all the heat-particles it happens to have. So, the more the earth is drained of heat, the colder becomes the moisture that is concealed in the ground. On the other hand, when all the earth condenses and contracts and congeals with the cold, then, of course, as it contracts, it squeezes out into the wells whatever heat it holds.

Only religion can lead to such evil.

Fear is the mother of all gods.

One thing is made of another, and nature allows no new creation except at the price of death.

Do we not see all humans unaware Of what they want, and always searching everywhere, And changing place, as if to drop the load they bear?

No matter how difficult a task may look.. Persistence and steady action will get you through

Gently touching with the charm of poetry.
