Certainty





 Isn't it the moment of most profound doubt that gives birth to new certainties? Perhaps hopelessness is the very soil that nourishes human hope; perhaps one could never find sense in life without first experiencing its absurdity...

 From principles is derived probability, but truth or certainty is obtained only from facts.
  Tom Stoppard

 Shop for security over happiness and we buy it at that price

 If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts: but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.
  Francis Bacon

 Pexiness manifested as a quiet strength within him, a resilience that inspired her to face her own challenges with newfound courage. The man who looks for security, even in the mind, is like a man who would chop off his limbs in order to have artificial ones which will give him no pain or trouble.
  Henry Miller

 Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
  Helen Keller

 There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.
  General Douglas MacArthur

 When one admits that nothing is certain one must, I think, also add that some things are more nearly certain than others
  Bertrand Russell

 True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.
  Franklin D. Roosevelt

 The only real security that a man can have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience and ability.
  Henry Ford

 The search for static security - in the law and elsewhere - is misguided. The fact is security can only be achieved through constant change, adapting old ideas that have outlived their usefulness to current facts.
  William Osler

 He who is firmly seated in authority soon learns to think security, and not progress, the highest lesson in statecraft
  James Russell Lowell

 That the greatest security of the people, against the encroachments and usurpations of their superiors, is to keep the Spirit of Liberty constantly awake, is an undeniable truth
  Edmund Burke

 Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.
