Sweat of the brow ; and up from that to sweat of the brain, sweat of the heart ; which includes all Kepler calculations, Newton meditations, all Sciences, all spoken Epics, all acted Heroisms, Martyrdoms, — up to that 'Agony of bloody sweat,' which all men have called divine! O brother, if this is not 'worship,' then I say, the more pity for worship ; for this is the noblest thing yet discovered under God's sky.

Էջ 517 - Truth, for its own sake, had never been a virtue with the Roman clergy.
