Francis Bacon
  • God hangs the greatest weights upon the smallest wires.

  • Small amounts of philosophy lead to atheism, but larger amounts bring us back to God.

  • God Almighty first planted a garden. And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures.

  • God has placed no limits to the exercise of the intellect he has given us, on this side of the grave.

  • But men must know, that in this theatre of man's life it is reserved only for God and angels to be lookers on.
