Strongly Inaccessible Cardinal

Famous quotes containing the words strongly, inaccessible and/or cardinal:

    Most thoughtful Americans of today seem to have forgotten how strongly their own and immediate predecessors, Emerson, Hawthorne and Whitman, were still preoccupied with the essence behind things.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    One must not make oneself cheap here—that is a cardinal point—or else one is done. Whoever is most impertinent has the best chance.
    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791)
