I love to lose myself in a mystery to pursue my reason to an O altitudo.
Thomas Browne
Image
For God is like a skilfull Geometrician.
Thomas Browne

Thomas Browne
Image
For there is a music wherever there is a harmony, order, or proportion, and thus far we may maintain the music of the spheres.

Suicide is not to fear death, but yet to be afraid of life. It is a brave act of valour to contemn death but when life is more terrible than death, it is then the truest valour to dare to live and herein religion hath taught us a noble example, for all the valiant acts of Curtius, Scarvola, or Codrus, do not parallel or match that one of Job.
Thomas Browne
Image

Thomas Browne
Image
Art is the perfection of nature, ... nature is the art of God.
Thomas Browne

Thomas Browne
Image
What song the Syrens sang, or what name Achilles assumed when he hid himself among women, though puzzling questions, are not beyond all conjecture.
Thomas Browne
Image
I would not live over my hours past ... not unto Cicero's ground because I have lived them well, but for fear I should live them worse.
Thomas Browne
Image
By compassion we make others' misery our own, and so, by relieving them, we relieve ourselves also.
Thomas Browne
Image
Circles and right lines limit and close all bodies, and the mortal right-lined circle must conclude and shut up all.
Thomas Browne
Image
It is the common wonder of all men, how among so many million faces, there should be none alike.
Thomas Browne
Image
There is no royal road or ready way to virtue.
Thomas Browne
Image
Rough diamonds may sometimes be mistaken for worthless pebbles.
