I could not, at any age, be content to take my place in a corner by the fireside and simply look on.

Karl Marx quotes Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age. Ambrose Bierce quotes The charm of history and its enigmatic lesson consist in the fact that, from age to age, nothing changes and yet everything is completely different. Aldous Huxley quotes The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm. Aldous Huxley quotes All men have poetry in their hearts, and it is necessary for them, as much as possible, to express their feelings. For this they must have a medium, moving and pliant, which can refreshingly become their own, age after age. All great languages undergo change. Those languages which resist the spirit of change are doomed and will never produce great harvests of thought and literature. When forms become fixed, the spirit either weakly accepts its imprisonment or rebels. All revolutions consists of the "within" fighting against invasion from "without"... All great human movements are related to some great idea. Rabindranath Tagore quotes I don't believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates. T.S. Eliot quotes Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen. Albert Einstein quotes A good old man, sir. He will be talking. As they say, when the age is in, the wit is out. William Shakespeare quotes It is well for the world that in most of us, by the age of thirty, the character has been set like plaster, and will never soften again. William James quotes |
