עמוד 684 - ...

עמוד 42 - Knowledge, and Wisdom, far from being one, Have oft-times no connection : Knowledge dwells In heads replete with thoughts of other men; Wisdom, in minds attentive to their own.
עמוד 674 - Books, not which afford us a cowering enjoyment, but in which each thought is of unusual daring; such as an idle man 'cannot read, and a timid one would not be entertained by, which even make us dangerous to existing institutions — such I call good books.
