Live your life as an Exclamation rather than an Explanation
If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.
Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.
Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.

I know not how I seem to others, but to myself I am but a small child wandering upon the vast shores of knowledge, every now and then finding a small bright pebble to content myself with while the vast ocean of undiscovered truth lay before me.

No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.
In the absence of any other proof, the thumb alone would convince me of God’s existence.

A Heavenly Master governs all the world as Sovereign of the universe. We are astonished at Him by reason of His perfection, we honor Him and fall down before Him because of His unlimited power.

When two forces unite, their efficiency double.
All knowledge and understanding of the Universe was no more than playing with stones and shells on the seashore of the vast imponderable ocean of truth.
I can measure the motion of bodies but I cannot measure human folly.
