The Real People Of Genius Were Resolute

A Cell Is Regarded As The True Biological Atom.

The Prosperity Of A Book Lies In The Minds Of Readers. Public Knowledge And Public Taste Fluctuate; And There Come Times When Works Which Were Once Capable Of Instructing And Delighting Thousands Lose Their Power, And Works, Before Neglected, Emerge Into Renown.

It Will Often Be A Question When A Man Is Or Is Not Wise In Advancing Unpalatable Opinions, Or In Preaching Heresies; But It Can Never Be A Question That A Man Should Be Silent If Unprepared To Speak The Truth As He Conceives It.

Many A Genius Has Been Slow Of Growth. Oaks That Flourish For A Thousand Years Do Not Spring Up Into Beauty Like A Reed.

Every One Who Has Seriously Investigated A Novel Question, Who Has Really Interrogated Nature With A View To A Distinct Answer, Will Bear Me Out In Saying That It Requires Intense And Sustained Effort Of Imagination.
