Berkeley Springs

Famous quotes containing the words berkeley and/or springs:

    Upon the whole I am inclined to think that the far greater part, if not all of those difficulties, which have hitherto amused philosophers, and blocked up the way to knowledge, are entirely owing to our selves. That we have raised a dust, and then complain that we cannot see.
    —George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling. To be natural is to be obvious, and to be obvious is to be inartistic.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
