Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or intellect:
“What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care.”

And everything that your own hands have wrought,
And call those works extravagance of breath
That are not suited for such men as come
Proud, open-eyed and laughing to the tomb.”
