Adam Smith Quotes, Organization Quotes, Ignorant Quotes

But whoever imagines, upon this account, that masters rarely combine, is as ignorant of the world as of the subject.

Don’t squander the gold of your days, listening to the tedious, trying to improve the hopeless failure, or giving away your life to the ignorant, the common, and the vulgar. These are the sickly aims, the false ideals, of our age. Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing.
