Study

Famous quotes containing the word study:

“A wise writer will feel that the ends of study and composition are best answered by announcing undiscovered regions of thought, and so communicating, through hope, new activity to the torpid spirit.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“A little skill in antiquity inclines a man to Popery. But depth in that study brings him about again to our religion.”
—Thomas Fuller (1608–1661)

“What is more subtle than this which ties me to the woman or man
that looks in my face?
Which fuses me into you now, and pours my meaning into you?
We understand men do we not?
What I promis’d without mentioning it, have you not accepted?
What the study could not teach—what the preaching could
not accomplish is accomplish’d, is it not?”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
