“A simple and independent mind does not toil at the bidding of any prince.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Thinking is seeing.... Every human science is based on deduction, which is a slow process of seeing by which we work up from the effect to the cause; or, in a wider sense, all poetry like every work of art proceeds from a swift vision of things.”
