William Godwin Zitate

During my academical life, and from this time forward, I was indefatigable in my search after truth. I read all the authors of greatest repute, for and against the Trinity, original sin, and the most disputed doctrines, but I was not yet of an understanding sufficiently ripe for impartial decision, and all my inquiries terminated in Calvinism.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Während meines akademischen Lebens und seit dieser Zeit war ich unermüdlich in meiner Suche nach der Wahrheit. Ich las alle Autoren, die für und gegen die Dreieinigkeit, die Erbsünde und die am meisten umstrittenen Lehren von größter Bedeutung waren, aber ich hatte noch kein Verständnis, das für eine unparteiische Entscheidung ausreichend ist, und alle meine Untersuchungen endeten im Calvinismus.

Life isn't so complicated for children. They have more time to think about the really important things. That's why I occasionally moralise in my children's books in a way I wouldn't dare when writing for adults.

No one bothered reading the books and understanding - and again, I'm not being high-falutin' about it - but I think our books are great literature with great metaphors of real life dealing with fears and hopes.

I try to construct a picture in which shapes, spaces, colors, form a set of unique relationships, independent of any subject matter. At the same time I try to capture and translate the excitement and emotion aroused in me by the impact with the original idea.

Although reading the classics in Latin in school may be not as fulfilling as it would be at a more mature age, few scientists can afford the time for such diversion later in life.

Consciously or not, we are all on a quest for answers, trying to learn the lessons of life. We grapple with fear and guilt. We search for meaning, love, and power. We try to understand fear, loss, and time. We seek to discover who we are and how we can become truly happy.
