But the spasms of nature are centuries and ages and will tax the faith of short-lived men. Slowly, slowly the Avenger comes, but comes surely. The proverbs of the nations affirm these delays, but affirm the arrival. They say, "God may consent, but not forever."“ — Ralph Waldo Emerson „Great men are always of a nature originally melancholy.“ — Aristotle „If you would cause your view … to be acknowledged by scientific men; you would do a great service to science. If you would even get them to say yes or no to your conclusions it would help to clear the future progress. I believe some hesitate because they do not like their thoughts disturbed.“ — Michael Faraday „Great men, great nations, have not been boasters and buffoons, but perceivers of the terror of life, and have manned themselves to face it.“ — Ralph Waldo Emerson „By nature, men are nearly alike; by practice, they get to be wide apart.“ — Confucius „great men burn bridges before they come to them“ — E.E. Cummings
