Famous quotes containing the words search and/or quest:
“When a person doesnt understand something, he feels internal discord: however he doesnt search for that discord in himself, as he should, but searches outside of himself. Thence a war develops with that which he doesnt understand.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
“The tranquility and peace that a scholar needs is something as sweet and exhilarating as love. Unspeakable joys are showered on us by the exertion of our mental faculties; the quest of ideas, and the tranquil contemplation of knowledge; delights indescribable, because purely intellectual and impalpable to our senses.”
—HonorĂ© De Balzac (17991850)
