"The man of science has learned to believe in justification, not by faith, but by verification." ― Thomas Huxley Topic(s): Age Tags: science More From Thomas Huxley "The chess-board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us." "It is because the body is a machine that education is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an artificial organization upon the natural organization of the body." "The great thing in the world is not so much to seek happiness as to earn peace and self-respect." More In Age "I’ll get pretty much everything the way I want it. I’ve always dreamed of a beach wedding."― Nicole Appleton "As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do."― Andrew Carnegie "The defects of the mind, like those of the face, grow worse with age."― Francois de La Rochefoucauld
