Enlightened Disciple

Famous quotes containing the words enlightened and/or disciple:

    Civilization has not ever been the brother of equality. Freedom was born among the wild eyries in the mountains; and barbarous tribes have sheltered under her wings, when the enlightened people of the plain have nestled under different pinions.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    But [Jonas] quickly understood that a disciple was not necessarily someone who wishes to learn something. More often, on the contrary, one became a disciple for the unselfish pleasure of teaching one’s master.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
