My quote store | George Santayana

Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. Thse who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
Nothing can so pierce the soul as the uttermost sigh of the body.
The Soul is the voice of the body's interests.
I believe in general in a dualism between facts and the ideas of those facts in human heads.
It is a revenge the devil sometimes takes upon the virtuous, that he entraps them by the force of the very passion they have suppressed and think themselves superior to.
Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
Almost every wise saying has an opposite one, no less wise, to balance it.
Nonsense is so good only because common sense is so limited.
Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
All living souls welcome whatsoever they are ready to cope with all else they ignore, or pronounce to be monstrous and wrong, or deny to be possible.
