Some men spend their lives watching bees and ants, noting down the habits of these insects; my pleasure is to watch the human mind, noting how unselfish instincts rise to the surface and sink back again, making way for selfish instincts, each equally necessary, for the world would perish were it to become entirely selfish or entirely unselfish.

An idea is so impersonal; it is yours today and the whole world's tomorrow.

To what better purpose can a man's energy be devoted, and his talents, than the resuscitation of his country's language?

George A. Moore Quotes
