עמוד 42 - ... reasoning which can alone assure us of any matter of fact or existence. We then call the one object Cause, the other Effect.
עמוד 113 - The sovereign is completely discharged from a duty, in the attempting to perform which he must always be exposed to innumerable delusions, and for the proper performance of which, no human wisdom or knowledge could ever be sufficient ; the duty of superintending the industry of private people, and of directing it towards the employments most suitable to the interest of the society.
עמוד 137 - On us who saw these phenomena for the first time, the impression made will not easily be forgotten. The palpable evidence presented to us, of one of the most extraordinary and important facts in the natural history of the earth, gave a reality and substance to those theoretical speculations, which, however probable, had never till now been directly authenticated by the testimony of the senses. We often said to ourselves, What clearer evidence could we have had of the different formation of these...
עמוד 250 - Go, wiser thou ! and, in thy scale of sense, Weigh thy Opinion against Providence; Call imperfection what thou fancy'st such, Say, here he gives too little, there too much...
עמוד 42 - ... is carried by habit, upon the appearance of one event, to expect its usual attendant and to believe that it will exist.

Hence that author cites instances of the sublime from the tenderest odes of love, as well as from the most terrific images of war.
עמוד 150 - Thus have I seen in Cona; but Cona I behold no more; thus have I seen two dark hills removed from their place by the strength of the mountain stream. They turn from side to side, and their tall oaks meet one another on high. Then they fall together with all their rocks and trees.
עמוד 42 - To recapitulate, therefore, the reasonings of this section; Every idea is copied from some preceding impression or sentiment; and where we cannot find any impression, we may be certain that there is no idea...
עמוד 176 - That general knowledge which now circulates in common talk, was in his time rarely to be found. Men not professing learning were not ashamed of ignorance; and, in the female world, . any acquaintance with books was distinguished only to be censured.
