“Reality is never more than a first step towards an unknown on the road to which one can never progress very far.”
“When we are sure that we are on the right road there is no need to plan our journey too far ahead. No need to burden ourselves with doubts and fears as to the obstacles that may bar our progress. We cannot take more than one step at a time.”
“Discontent is the first step in progress. No one knows what is in him till he tries, and many would never try if they were not forced to.”
“The first step toward power is to accept reality”
“He who cannot change the very fabric of his thought will never be able to change reality, and will never, therefore, make any progress.”
“Science…means unresting endeavor and continually progressing development toward an aim which the poetic intuition may apprehend, but the intellect can never fully grasp.”
