We hail science as man's truest friend and noblest helper.
In solitude all great things are born.
Genuine wit implies no small amount of wisdom and culture.
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.
Life is the offspring of death.
Genuine and innocent wit is surely the very flavor of the mind.
