“In matters of religion, I have considered that its free exercise is placed by the Constitution independent of the powers of the general government. I have therefore undertaken on no occasion to prescribe the religious exercises suited to it; but have left them as the Constitution found them, under the direction and discipline of State or Church authorities acknowledged by the several religious societies.” MatterStatesGovernmentFoundLeftChurchReligiousDisciplineExerciseAuthorityConstitutionIndependentOccasionsSeparation Of Church And State Book:Jefferson on Freedom: Wisdom, Advice, and Hints on Freedom, Democracy, and the American Way Source: Jefferson on Freedom: Wisdom, Advice, and Hints on Freedom, Democracy, and the American Way

“There is plenty of room left for exact experiment in art, and the gate has been opened for some time. What had been accomplished in music by the end of the eighteenth century has only begun in the fine arts. Mathematics and physics have given us a clue in the form of rules to be strictly observed or departed from, as the case may be. Here salutary discipline is come to grips first of all with the function of forms, and not with form as the final result … in this way we learn how to look beyond the surface and get to the root of things.” WayFirstsLooksMayHas BeensArtEndsFormLeftGivenRoomsResultsMusicCasesLearningCenturyFineDisciplineRootsFunctionMathematicsFinalsSurfacePhysicsExperimentsPlentyAccomplishedGatesClueFine ArtsDeparted Author:Paul Klee
“Though it is folly to suppose that happiness is a matter of volition, and that we can make ourselves content and cheerful whenever we choose - a theory that many poor hypochondriacs are taunted with till they are nigh driven mad - yet, on the other hand, no sane mind is ever left without the power of self-discipline and self-control in a measure, which measure increases in proportion as it is exercised.” MindSelfMatterHandsLeftPoorTheoryDisciplineIncreaseMadDrivenProportionFollySaneSelf ControlSelf DisciplineCheerfulVolitionDiscipline And Self ControlHypochondriac Author:Dinah Maria Murlock Craik

“Tips can make someone a better writer but not necessarily a good writer. That's a larger package - a matter of character. Golfing is more than keeping the left arm straight. Every good golfer is a complex engine that runs on ability, ego, determination, discipline, patience, confidence, and other qualities that are self-taught.

“As a progressive discipline [biochemistry] belongs to the present century. From the experimental physiologists of the last century it obtained a charter, and, from a few pioneers of its own, a promise of success; but for the furtherance of its essential aim that century left it but a small inheritance of facts and methods. By its essential or ultimate aim I myself mean an adequate and acceptable description of molecular dynamics in living cells and tissues.” MeanFactsLastsLeftCenturyDisciplinePromiseEssentialsUltimateAimMethodCellsDescriptionProgressiveAcceptableAdequateInheritancePioneersTissuesDynamicsCharterBiochemistry Author:Frederick Gowland Hopkins
