Jeremy Collier

Belief gets in the way of learning.

Learning gives us a fuller conviction of the imperfections of our nature which one would think, might dispose us to modesty.

Knowledge is the consequence of time, and multitude of days are fittest to teach wisdom.

In civilized life, where the happiness and indeed almost the existence of man, depends on the opinion of his fellow men. He is constantly acting a studied part.

True courage is a result of reasoning. A brave mind is always impregnable.
