Penetrate Quotations
To penetrate and dissipate these clouds of darkness, the general mind must be strengthened by education. Thomas Jefferson An army of principles can penetrate where an army of soldiers cannot. Thomas Paine Poetry may make us from time to time a little more aware of the deeper, unnamed feelings which form the substratum of our being, to which we rarely penetrate; for our lives are mostly a constant evasion of ourselves. T. S. Eliot The greatest artist has no conception which a single block of white marble does not potentially contain within its mass, but only a hand obedient to the mind can penetrate to this image. Michelangelo It is curious to reflect, for example, upon the remarkable legend of the Philosopher's Stone, one of the oldest and most universal beliefs, the origin of which, however far back we penetrate into the records of the past, we do not probably trace its real source. Frederick Soddy |
