“The more ingenious our apparatus, the coarser and more unskillful are our senses.”

“Our judgements judge us; and nothing reveals us [or] exposes our weaknesses more ingeniously than the attitude of pronouncing upon our fellows.”

The proper utilization of our intelligence and knowledge is to effect changes from within to develop a good heart.”
