Do Anything Rather Than Give Yourself To

No Man Receives The Full Culture Of A Man In Whom The Sensibility To The Beautiful Is Not Cherished; And There Is No Condition Of Life From Which It Should Be Excluded. Of All Luxuries This Is The Cheapest, And The Most At Hand, And Most Important To Those Conditions Where Coarse Labor Tends To Give Grossness To The Mind.

Great Effort From Great Motives Is The Best Definition Of A Happy Life

But The Ground Of A Man's Culture Lies In His Nature, Not In His Calling. His Powers Are To Be Unfolded On Account Of Their Inherent Dignity, Not Their Outward Direction. He Is To Be Educated, Because He Is A Man, Not Because He Is To Make Shoes, Nail, Or Pins.

Every Mind Was Made For Growth, For Knowledge, And Its Nature Is Sinned Against When It Is Doomed To Ignorance.

God Is Another Name For Human Intelligence Raised Above All Error And Imperfection, And Extended To All Possible Truth.
