"Things have their root and their branches. Affairs have their end and
their beginning. To know what is first and what is last will lead near
to what is taught in the Great Learning."
"If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only
real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of
knowledge, experience, and ability."
"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether twenty or eighty. Anyone who
keeps learning today is young. The greatest thing in life is to keep
your mind young."

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason
for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries
of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one
tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy
curiosity."

"Intelligence makes clear to us the interrelationship of means and ends. But
mere thinking cannot give us a sense of the ultimate and fundamental ends. To
make clear these fundamental ends and valuations and to set them fast in the
emotional life of the individual, seems to me precisely the most important
function which religion has to form in the social life of man."
