But love, like the sun that it is, sets afire and melts everything. What greed and privilege to build up over whole centuries the indignation of a pious spirit, with its natural following of oppressed souls, will cast down with a single shove Picture Quote #1

Every human being has within him an ideal man, just as every piece of marble contains in a rough state a statue as beautiful as the one that Praxiteles the Greek made of the god Apollo Picture Quote #1

People are made of hate and of love, and more of hate than love. But love, like the sun that it is, sets afire and melts everything Picture Quote #1

We light the oven so that everyone may bake bread in it. If I survive, I will spend my whole life at the oven door seeing that no one is denied bread and, so as to give a lesson of charity, especially those who did not bring flour Picture Quote #1

Every thinker puts some portion of an apparently stable world in peril and no one can wholly predict what will emerge in its place Picture Quote #1

We sometimes talk as if original research were a peculiar prerogative of scientists or at least of advanced students.

Imposing an alleged uniform general method upon everybody breeds mediocrity in all but the very exceptional. And measuring originality by deviation from the mass breeds eccentricity in them Picture Quote #1

Every subject at some phase of its development should possess, what is for the individual concerned with it, an aesthetic quality Picture Quote #1

The discovery that mass changes with velocity, a discovery made when minute bodies came under consideration, finally forced surrender of the notion that mass is a fixed and inalienable possession of ultimate elements or individuals, so that time is now considered to be their fourth dimension Picture Quote #1

Generosity during life is a very different thing from generosity in the hour of death; one proceeds from genuine liberality and benevolence, the other from pride or fear Picture Quote #1

Resolve to edge in a little reading every day, if it is but a single sentence. If you gain fifteen minutes a day, it will make itself felt at the end of the year Picture Quote #1

It would be as natural for a full-grown tiger to mew as for a man released from the slavery of imitations ever to go back to his neighbor again with: What do you think of this? What do you advise about that? Picture Quote #1

I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood? Picture Quote #1

I've been a long time coming, and I'll be a long time gone. You've got your whole life to do something, and that's not very long Picture Quote #1

I have something to prove, as long as I know there's something that needs improvement, and you know that everytime I move, I make a woman's movement Picture Quote #1
