For The Perception Of The Beautiful We

The Wisdom Of God Exceeds That Of The Wisest Man, More Than His Wisdom Exceeds That Of A Child. If A Child Were To Conjecture How An Army Is To Be Formed In The Day Of Battle--how A City Is To Be Fortified, Or A State Governed--what Chance Has He To Guess Right? As Little Chance Has The Wisest Man When He Pretends To Conjecture How The Planets Move In Their Courses, How The Sea Ebbs And Flows, And How Our Minds Act Upon Our Bodies.

It Is A Question Of Fact, Whether The Influence Of Motives Be Fixed By Laws Of Nature, So That They Shall Always Have The Same Effect In The Same Circumstances.

Every Indication Of Wisdom, Taken From The Effect, Is Equally An Indication Of Power To Execute What Wisdom Planned.

There Is No Greater Impediment To The Advancement Of Knowledge Than The Ambiguity Of Words.
