Quotes about philosophy:

Happiness is the goal of philosophy. Or to be more precise, the goal of philosophy is wisdom, and therefore happiness.
Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search thereof when he is grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul.

A theory which is not refutable by any conceivable event is non-scientific. Irrefutability is not a virtue of a theory (as people often think) but a vice.
Quotes about poetry:
Painting is poetry which is seen and not heard, and poetry is a painting which is heard but not seen.
