“The thoughts and opinions of one human being, if they are sincere, must always have an interest for some other human beings. The world is there to think about; and if we have lived, or are living, with any sort of energy, we must have thought about it, and about ourselves in relation to it - thought 'furiously' often. And it is out of the many 'thinkings' of many folk, strong or weak, dull or far-ranging, that thought itself grows.” IfsThinkingWorldHumansEnergyStrongGrowsInterestHuman BeingsOpinionWeakRelationFolksDullSincere Author:Mary Augusta Ward
