Keen Sage

Famous quotes containing the words keen and/or sage:

    When you’re not used to comfort and good things to eat, you’re intoxicated by them in no time. Truth’s only too pleased to leave you. Very little’s ever needed for Truth to let go of you. And after all, you’re not really very keen to keep hold of it.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    The sage as astronomer.—As long as you still experience the stars as something “above you,” you still lack viewpoint of knowledge.
