Jeremy Taylor

To be proud of learning is the greatest ignorance.

It is impossible to make people understand their ignorance; for it requires knowledge to perceive it and therefore he that can perceive it hath it not.

He that speaketh against his own reason speaks against his own conscience, and therefore it is certain that no man serves God with a good conscience who serves him against his reason.

Mistake not. Those pleasures are not pleasures that trouble the quiet and tranquillity of thy life.

- Jeremy Taylor
