Genuine and innocent wit is surely the very flavor of the mind.
The gifts of genius are far greater than the givers themselves venture to suppose.
We hail science as man's truest friend and noblest helper.
Heaven alone, not earth, is destined to witness the repose of faith.
In solitude all great things are born.
Science is teaching man to know and reverence truth, and to believe that only so far as he knows and loves it can he live worthily on earth, and vindicate the dignity of his spirit.
