“Doubt is the beginning, not the end, of wisdom.”
“I have always felt that doubt was the beginning of wisdom, and the fear of God was the end of wisdom.”
“The fear of God is not the beginning of wisdom. The fear of God is the death of wisdom. Skepticism and doubt lead to study and investigation, and investigation is the beginning of wisdom.”
“If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.”
“The beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth.”
“A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom. ”
