We hail science as man's truest friend and noblest helper.
Life is the offspring of death.
The human intellect is the great truth-organ; realities, as they exist, are the subjects of its study; and knowledge is the result of its acquaintance with the things which it investigates.
Genuine and innocent wit is surely the very flavor of the mind.
In solitude all great things are born.
Heaven alone, not earth, is destined to witness the repose of faith.
