  • Perfect Quote #1

    Euclid's Elements has been for nearly twenty-two centuries the encouragement and guide of that scientific thought which is one thing with the progress of man from a worse to a better state. The encouragement; for it contained a body of knowledge that was really known and could be relied on, and that moreover was growing in extent and application. For even at the time this book was written—shortly after the foundation of the Alexandrian Museum—Mathematics was no longer the merely ideal science of the Platonic school, but had started on her career of conquest over the whole world of Phenomena. The guide; for the aim of every scientific student of every subject was to bring his knowledge of that subject into a form as perfect as that which geometry had attained. Far up on the great mountain of Truth, which all the sciences hope to scale, the foremost of that sacred sisterhood was seen, beckoning for the rest to follow her.

    William Kingdon Clifford

  • Perfect Quote #2

    Robert Ingersoll's character was as nearly perfect as it is possible for the character of mortal man to be... none sweeter or nobler had ever blessed the world. The example of his life was of more value to posterity than all the sermons that were ever written on the doctrine of original sin... The genius for humor and wit and satire of a Voltaire, a wide amplitude of imagination, and a greatness of heart and brain that placed him upon an equal footing with the greatest thinkers of antiquity. He stands, at the close of his career, the first great reformer of the age.

    {Thomas' words at the funeral of the great Robert Ingersoll}

  • Perfect Quote #8

    A love poem about the most invisible woman:

    The perfect mind, the perfect cover.
    I knew her, like… there was no other.
    No, I will never, her, forget.
    In pure blood - these words are set.
    She walks alone now, in my dreams,
    where no is never, so it seems.
    The night is dark, and near the hour –
    to plant a tree, where roses flower.
    And then, again, again, once more,
    Till hidden is what I adore.
    Her heart was pure, and also kind,
    And I… should not have acted blind.

    A perfect night... a perfect forever

    Mary E. Pearson
  • Perfect Quote #11

    According to Teleology, each organism is like a rifle bullet fired straight at a mark; according to Darwin, organisms are like grapeshot of which one hits something and the rest fall wide.

    For the teleologist an organism exists because it was made for the conditions in which it is found; for the Darwinian an organism exists because, out of many of its kind, it is the only one which has been able to persist in the conditions in which it is found.

    Teleology implies that the organs of every organism are perfect and cannot be improved; the Darwinian theory simply affirms that they work well enough to enable the organism to hold its own against such competitors as it has met with, but admits the possibility of indefinite improvement.

    Thomas Henry Huxley
  • Perfect Quote #12

    After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.

  • Perfect Quote #18

    Jennifer L. Armentrout
  • Perfect Quote #19

    And I wasn’t playing a role – I was trying to be myself.
    But the harder I was striving, the more I was realizing that I had probably lost that ‘myself’ somewhere between two perfectly performed roles...

    Simona Panova
  • Perfect Quote #20

    And she did not have to ask if this was right, no one had to tell her, because this could not have been more right or perfect.

    Patricia Highsmith
  • Perfect Quote #21

    And that was the greatest heartbreak of all- no matter how spectacular we want our children to be, no matter how perfect we pretend they are, they are bound to disappoint. As it turns out, kids are more like us than we think: damaged, through and through.

    Jodi Picoult
  • Perfect Quote #22

    Anger is easier than forgiveness.

    Ellen Hopkins
  • Perfect Quote #23

    As a scientist, I can not help feeling that all religions are on a tottering foundation. None is perfect or inspired.

    The idea that a good God would send people to a burning hell is utterly damnable to me. I don't want to have anything to do with such a God.

    Luther Burbank
