Famous quotes containing the word discoveries:

    “Astronomy is perhaps the science whose discoveries owe least to chance, in which human understanding appears in its whole magnitude, and through which man can best learn how small he is.”
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    “The science of Humboldt is one thing, poetry is another thing. The poet to-day, notwithstanding all the discoveries of science, and the accumulated learning of mankind, enjoys no advantage over Homer.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “However many discoveries we may have made in the land of self-love, there remain uncharted territories.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
