"Mere goodness can achieve little against the power of nature." ― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel Topic(s): Nature More From Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel "I’m not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation." "The history of the world is none other than the progress of the consciousness of freedom." "The learner always begins by finding fault, but the scholar sees the positive merit in everything." More In Nature "Perhaps the surest test of an individual’s integrity is his refusal to do or say anything that would damage his self-respect."― Thomas S. Monson "Acting is invigorating. But I don’t analyse it too much. It’s like a dog smelling where it’s going to do its toilet in the morning."― Liam Neeson "Ideas devour the ages as men are devoured by their passions. When man is cured, human nature will cure itself perhaps."― Honore de Balzac
