The process of scientific discovery is, in effect, a continual flight from wonder.
Albert Einstein
In modern life nothing produces such an effect as a good platitude. It makes the whole world kin.
Oscar Wilde
I shall the effect of this good lesson keeps as watchman to my heart.
William Shakespeare
Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.
John Lennon
Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Cause and effect are two sides of one fact.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hate and force cannot be in just a part of the world without having an effect on the rest of it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The little may contrast with the great, in painting, but cannot be said to be contrary to it. Oppositions of colors contrast; but there are also colors contrary to each other, that is, which produce an ill effect because they shock the eye when brought very near it.
Voltaire
The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is something behind the will which is free.
Swami Vivekananda
Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Every cause produces more than one effect.
Herbert Spencer
The Declaration of Independence I always considered as a theatrical show. Jefferson ran away with all the stage effect of that... and all the glory of it.
John Adams
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
Edgar Allan Poe
I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.
Edgar Allan Poe
I have, indeed, no abhorrence of danger, except in its absolute effect - in terror.
Edgar Allan Poe
But that intimacy of mutual embarrassment, in which each feels that the other is feeling something, having once existed, its effect is not to be done away with.
George Eliot
Worldly faces never look so worldly as at a funeral. They have the same effect of grating incongruity as the sound of a coarse voice breaking the solemn silence of night.
George Eliot
Ignorant kindness may have the effect of cruelty; but to be angry with it as if it were direct cruelty would be an ignorant unkindness.
George Eliot
Genius is the ability to put into effect what is on your mind.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
