The goal of mankind is knowledge ... Now this knowledge is inherent in man. No knowledge comes from outside: it is all inside.

What is life but the angle of vision? A man is measured by the angle at which he looks at objects. What is life but what a man is thinking of all day? This is his fate and his employer. Knowing is the measure of the man. By how much we know, so we are.
