The beginning of wisdom is the awareness that there is insufficient evidence that a God or gods have created us and the recognition that we are responsible in part for our own destiny. Human beings can achieve this good life, but it is by the cultivation of the virtues of intelligence and courage, not faith and obedience, that we will most likely be able to do so Picture Quote #1

Furthermore, the study of the present surroundings is insufficient: the history of the people, the influence of the regions through which it has passed on its migrations, and the people with whom it came into contact, must be considered Picture Quote #1

Every man has at times in his mind the ideal of what he should be, but is not. This ideal may be high and complete, or it may be quite low and insufficient; yet in all men that really seek to improve, it is better than the actual character... Man never falls so low that he can see nothing higher than himself Picture Quote #1

I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day Picture Quote #1

Nothing is so intolerable to man as being fully at rest, without passion, without business, without entertainment, without care.

From the depths of his soul now comes at once boredom, gloom, sorrow, chagrin, resentment and despair Picture Quote #1
