It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but
the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience
and maturity.

Re: QUOTE CORNER
Quotes extracted from “A Tale of Two Cities” (1859) - an exquisite historical novel by Charles Dickens, one of the most remarkable writers in the English language. Each individual flow of words constitutes a passage of rare beauty.
Chapter I - "The Period"
• It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
Chapter III - "The Night Shadows"
• "A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every room in every one of them encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there, is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!"
