“Conclusions from observations are unreliable, only the mind can come nearer to to the truth. Thus, in some ways, philosophy is more important than science.”

All things were together, infinite both in number and in smallness; for the small too was infinite.

Men would live exceedingly quiet if these two words, mine and thine, were taken away.

The sun provides the moon with its brightness.

It is not I who have lost the Athenians, but the Athenians who have lost me.

Neither is there a smallest part of what is small, but there is always a smaller (for it is impossible that what is should cease to be). Likewise there is always something larger than what is large.

The Sun is a mass of fiery stone, a little larger than Greece.

Everything has a natural explanation. The moon is not a god but a great rock and the sun a hot rock.

The descent to Hades is the same from every place.

The forces of rotation caused red hot masses of stones to be torn away from the Earth and to be thrown into the ether, and this is the origin of the stars.

All other things have a portion of everything, but Mind is infinite and self-ruled, and is mixed with nothing but is all alone by itself.

The descent into Hades is much the same from whatever place we start.

And since the portions of the great and the small are equal in number, so too all things would be in everything. Nor is it possible that they should exist apart, but all things have a portion of everything.

There is no smallest among the small and no largest among the large, but always something still smaller and something still larger.

In everything, there is a share of everything.

The purpose of life is the investigation of the Sun, the Moon, and the heavens.

Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen.

A reflective, contented mind is the best possession.

In my mind’s eye, I visualize how a particular… sight and feeling will appear on a print. If it excites me, there is a good chance it will make a good photograph. It is an intuitive sense, an ability that comes from a lot of practice.

Stay loyal to your own peace of mind.

Our mind is very powerful when we allow it to be.

The word enough doesn’t exist inside our minds when it comes on achieving and receiving for our pleasure.

If you can think about what you want in your mind, and make that your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life.

Men’s minds are too ready to excuse guilt in themselves.

I don’t mind anything that’s written about me, as long as it’s not true.
