Francis Bacon Quotes

«Reading makes a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.»
«All colors will agree in the dark.»
«It is natural to die as to be born.»
«The men of experiment are like the ant, they only collect and use; the reasoners resemble spiders, who make cobwebs out of their own substance. But the bee takes the middle course, it gathers its material from the flowers of the garden and field, but transforms and digests it by a power of its own.»
«For those who intend to discover and to understand, not to indulge in conjectures and soothsaying, and rather than contrive imitation and fabulous worlds plan to look deep into the nature of the real world and to dissect it -- for them everything must be sought in things themselves.»
«What the mother sings to the cradle goes all the way down to the coffin.»
«Speech of yourself ought to be seldom and well chosen.»
«Discretion in speech is more than eloquence.»
«Argumentation cannot suffice for the discovery of new work, since the subtlety of Nature is greater many times than the subtlety of argument.»
«The worst solitude is to have no real friendships.»
