Famous quotes containing the words silly and/or seal:
“No man is exempt from saying silly things; the mischief is to say them deliberately.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“To believe in something not yet proved and to underwrite it with our lives: it is the only way we can leave the future open. Man, surrounded by facts, permitting himself no surmise, no intuitive flash, no great hypothesis, no risk, is in a locked cell. Ignorance cannot seal the mind and imagination more surely.”
—Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
