The greatest and noblest pleasure which we have in this world is to discover new truths, and the next is to shake off old prejudices.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding.
New knowledge is the most valuable commodity on earth. The more truth we have to work with, the richer we become.
I love new places, new people, new ideas. I love cultural differences, and I'm fascinated by the truth - all the different versions of it.
The great quest of life has always been to discover truth.
But I owe it to the subject to say, that it has long afforded me what philosophy is so often thought, and made, barren of - the fun of discovery, the pleasures of co-operation, and the satisfaction of reaching agreement.
It is a great mystery that though the human heart longs for Truth, in which alone it finds liberation and delight, the first reaction of human beings to Truth is one of hostility and fear!
Pleasures take to themselves wings and fly away; true knowledge remains forever.
As we rise higher in the understanding of ourselves, the national and racial dissonances will be forgotten in the universal rhythms of Truth and Love.
By recollecting the pleasures I have had formerly, I renew them, I enjoy them a second time, while I laugh at the remembrance of troubles now past, and which I no longer feel.
One we discover how to appreciate the timeless values in our daily experiences, we can enjoy the best things in life.
