“What is there in man so worthy of honor and reverence as this, that he is capable of contemplating something higher than his own reason, more sublime than the whole universe- that Spirit which alone is self-subsis-tent, from which all truth proceeds, without which there is no truth?”
-- Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi -
“To lay aside all prejudices, is to lay aside all principles. He who is destitute of principles is governed by whims.”
