 There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.

 There is no difference between someone who eats too little and sees Heaven and someone who drinks too much and sees snakes

 There is no greater reason for children to honour parents than for parents to honour children except, that while the children are young, the parents are stronger than children.

 There is no need to worry about mere size. We do not necessarily respect a fat man more than a thin man. Sir Isaac Newton was very much smaller than a hippopotamus, but we do not on that account value him less.

 There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action

 There is something feeble and a little contemptible about a man who cannot face the perils of life without the help of comfortable myths

 There will still be things that machines cannot do. They will not produce great art or great literature or great philosophy; they will not be able to discover the secret springs of happiness in the human heart; they will know nothing of love and friendship.

 Those who first advocated religious toleration were thought wicked, and so were the early opponents of slavery.
