General Science

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or science:

    He who never sacrificed a present to a future good or a personal to a general one can speak of happiness only as the blind do of colors.
    Olympia Brown (1835–1900)

    Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
