Those who refuse the long drudgery of thought, and think with the heart rather than the head, are ever the most fiercely dogmatic in tone.

More quotes by Peter Bayne
The day that witnesses the conversion of our ministers into political and philosophical speculators or scientific lecturers, will witness the final decay of clerical weight and influence.
Peter Bayne
Without earnestness no man is ever great, or does really great things. He may be the cleverest of men he may be brilliant, entertaining, popular but he will want weight. No soul-moving picture was ever painted that had not in it depth of shadow.
Peter Bayne
The wild force of genius has often been fated by Nature to be finally overcome by quiet strength. The volcano sends up its red bolt with terrific force, as if it would strike the stars but the calm, resistless hand of gravitation seizes it and brings it to the earth.
Peter Bayne
