Side 147 - Were it fit to trouble thee with the history of this Essay, I should tell thee, that five or six friends meeting at my chamber, and discoursing on a subject very remote from this, found themselves quickly at a stand, by the difficulties that rose on every side.
Side 185 - whether in thine own person or in that of any other, in every case as an end withal, never as a means only.
Side 157 - no man knoweth the Father, but the Son, and he to whom the Son revealeth Him ' ; and seeing ' the revelation of the Son is in and by the Spirit ' ; therefore the testimony of the Spirit is that alone by which the true knowledge of God hath been, is, and can be, only revealed...
Side 158 - ... for this divine revelation and inward illumination, is that which is evident and clear of itself, forcing, by its own evidence and clearness, the well-disposed understanding to assent, irresistibly moving the same thereunto...
Side 310 - Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.

This is true of politics, religion and art as well as of philosophy. They all tell something of the realm of...
Side 5 - The life of all thought is to effect a junction at some point of the new and the old, of deepsunk customs and unconscious dispositions, that are brought to the light of attention by some conflict with newly emerging directions of activity. Philosophies which emerge at distinctive periods define the larger patterns of continuity which are woven in effecting the enduring junctions of a stubborn past and an insistent future.
Side 228 - Let our artists rather be those who are gifted to discern the true nature of beauty and grace; then will our youth dwell in a land of health, amid fair sights and sounds; and beauty, the effluence of fair works, will meet the sense like a breeze, and insensibly draw the soul even in childhood into harmony with the beauty of reason.
Side 147 - ... found themselves quickly at a stand, by the difficulties that rose on every side. After we had awhile puzzled ourselves, without coming any nearer a resolution of those doubts which perplexed us, it came into my thoughts that we took a wrong course...
