“The greatest benefit derived from the study of science is that it lifts you out of and above the littleness of daily trials.

Standing under the canopy of stars and remembering their presence you could scarcely do a petty deed, or think a wicked thought.” ThinkingWholeRememberUniverseStarsStudyBenefitsStandingDeedsTrialsLiftsWickedPettyCanopy Author:Maria Mitchell
