Extra Wide Gathers

Famous quotes containing the words extra, wide and/or gathers:

    Liking one person is an extra reason for liking another.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 7:13.

    Those who have handled sciences have either been men of experiment or men of dogmas. The men of experiment are like the ant; they only collect and use; the reasoners resemble spiders, who make cobwebs out of their own substance. But the bee takes the middle course; it gathers its material from the flowers of the garden and of the field, but transforms and digests it by a power of its own. Not unlike this is the true business of philosophy.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
